phil&teds e3 twin buggy - Manual (Page 15)

cleaning & caring for your e 3 twin
unlike children, your e 3 twin likes to stay clean.
e 3 twin’s coat
The fabric is backed with a water-resistant
coating. Brush off dirt. More intense cleaning
can be done by hand, in warm water, using
a mild natural soap. Rinse out soap. Do
not use detergents or bleach. Air dry. Don’t
leave the e
3 twin out in the sun - the fabric
is fade resistant but not fade proof (just like
your kids!).
e 3 twin’s body
We recommend that dirt is brushed off the
frame and wheels regularly. Clean with a non-
abrasive household cleaner and soft cloth.
Wash off sand and salt after beach activity.
(How would you like it if someone left sand in
your knickers!!) Always dry frame if wet (no
one likes soggy knickers!).
tyres & inner tube
The valve is car-size. We recommend 20
- 22 psi. Releasing air gives a softer ride,
but lower pressure reduces tread life. New
inner tubes and tyres are generally available
(21/4” x 121/2” tyre) from your dealer, cycle or
specialist wheel shops. Standard tyre kits can
repair punctures. A flat tyre can result from grit
holding the valve open; to check: inflate tyre,
deflate rapidly, and re-inflate. Tyres and tubes
are not under warranty. Do not over inflate.
rubber covers & grip
Take care to avoid damage to the foam rubber
on both the handle and the bumper bar. The
foam rubber is not under warranty.
inspect & maintain
Moving parts may need periodic lubrication.
Inspect essential components for fraying
(esp. webbing straps and safety harness),
wear (esp. auto-locks, snap fasteners, button
springs, tyres, plastic parts, zips and moving
parts), security (esp. autolocks and caps
which must not be loose) and freedom of
movement (esp. wheels, nuts). Excessive
wear can reduce effectiveness and safety.
