Care and maintenance

General care advice
• Never expose your vehicle to excessive sunlight for long periods of time.
• Always use a raincover when it is snowing or raining.
• Never store your vehicle in cold and/or damp places. In order to avoid mould it is important that you make
sure that it is completely dried in room temperature after use.
• Should the chassis become wet, dry it off promptly. Make sure the vehicle is completely dry before storing.
• Rinse and dry off the pram, if you have used the pram close to the sea or on salted roads or pavements.
• Take care when transporting or storing the chassis. The chassis surface is delicate. Scratches to the chas-
sis surface, that arise after purchase are not cause for a valid complaint.
Routine Inspection
• Regularly clean the chassis and metal parts of the vehicle -dry off and lubricate all joints of the chassis.
When the pram is used during the winter time, cleaning of the pram should be done at least once a week.
Lack of maintenance could cause corrosion. Should corrosion on the surface occur, which is a possibility,
you are required to remove this with car wax in order to avoid rust. (never use a corrosion cleaning agent
on the wheels)
• It is recommended to lubricate the wheel axles and suspension system every three months (clean axles
with a cloth prior to lubrication). Axles may be lubricated with petroleum jelly or automobile oil.
Check regularly that:
• all chassis locking devices are functioning properly.
• all rivets, nuts and bolts are firmly tightened and not broken or damaged.
• all plastic parts are not cracked or broken.
• the wheel bushings are in a good condition.
• both velcros are securely fastened around the plastic strap on the backrest/seat unit
• all elastic straps are in a good condition.
• the secondary locking mechanism is intact and can move freely.
• the brake works and the brake cogs are intact
• the tyre air pressure is correct (only air tyre) (see marking on tyre: 28 P.S.I. = 1,8 bar; 35 PSI = 2,5 bar)
• check the handle regularly and the bottom of the carry-cot/lift for damage or wear and tear.
PLEASE OBSERVE
• When in need of servicing with original parts and other technical issues that require a professional deci-
sion, always get in touch with your retailer where your Emmaljunga product was purchased.
• The product that you have chosen follows the guarantee regulations valid from the 1st of July 2002 (SFS
2002:587) You have a right to demand this information when you purchase your pram at your retailer.
WARNING
• Tyres can when in contact with PVC-floor or other plastic materials cause discoloration. Always use wheel
protection if the pram/stroller is stored on delicate surfaces.
Viking v. 3.0
• The parking brake consists of moving parts
and requires regular maintenance for correct function.
• To ensure effective functioning always make sure that the parking brake is well
lubricated. Immediately remove sand, snow, ice and dirt from any moving part of
the braking system.
• Use a silicon or oil based lubricant to lubricate the brake pedal, wheel axle and
brake pins on both sides of the parking brake at least once a month. Also
lubricate the release mechanism on the wheels on a similarly regular basis.
• If you use your Emmaljunga pram/stroller on sandy beaches or under other dirty
and wet conditions make sure to take extra care of the parking brake and
maintain the braking system and wheels as detailed above whenever needed.
