Refitting the tyre Volver a colocar el neumático
1. Fit one side of the tyre back over the wheel rim, using the tyre levers if necessary.
2. Push the tyre away from the valve hole, push the inner tube valve through the hole,
then push the rest of the tube inside the tyre.
3. Hold the valve in place and fit the other side of the tyre back onto the wheel rim, using
the tyre levers if necessary. Care must be taken not to pinch the tube under the end of
the lever or trap it under the tyre as this could cause further punctures.
4. Connect the pump and PARTLY inflate the tyre to seat the sidewalls of the tyre on the
wheel rim. Check the valve is positioned correctly.
5. Once the tyre is fully seated on the wheel rim, inflate the tyre to the pressure
recommended in the user guide or on the sidewall of the tyre.
6. If valve caps are available, re-fit them to keep dirt out of the valve.
1. Coloque un lado del neumático sobre la llanta de la rueda, utilizando las palancas para
neumático si fuera necesario.
2. Separe el neumático del agujero de la válvula, introduzca la válvula del tubo interior a
través del agujero y a continuación empuje el resto del tubo dentro del neumático.
3. Sujete la válvula en su lugar y coloque el otro lado del neumático en la llanta,
utilizando las palancas para neumáticos si fuera necesario. Debe tener la precaución
de no pinzar el tubo con el extremo de la palanca o evitar que quede atrapado bajo el
neumático ya que esto podría provocar otro pinchazo.
4. Conecte la bomba e hinche PARCIALMENTE el neumático para poder asentar los
laterales del neumático en la llanta de la rueda. Compruebe que la válvula está
colocada correctamente.
5. Cuando el neumático esté totalmente asentado dentro de la llanta de la rueda, hinche
el neumático a la presión recomendada en la guía del usuario o en el lateral del propio
neumático.
6. Si la válvula lleva tapón, vuelva a colocarlo para prevenir que la válvula se ensucie.

Care of your product
10
● This Three-wheeler requires regular maintenance by you.
● Regularly inspect the locking devices, brakes, harness assembly, catches, joints and
fixings to ensure they are secure and in full working order.
● Brakes, wheels and tyres are subject to wear and should be replaced if necessary.
This can be arranged through your local Mothercare store. The tyres have inner tubes
and can be repaired in the same way as conventional bicycle tyres.
● Should parts of your Three-wheeler become stiff or difficult to operate, ensure that
dirt is not the cause. Then try a light application of a spray lubricant eg. WD 40,
ensuring that the lubricant penetrates between the components, but do not
overspray as this may encourage the accumulation of dirt. Regular lubrication of
moving parts will extend the life of your Three-wheeler and make opening and
folding easier.
● Plastic and metal parts may be sponged clean with warm water and a mild detergent.
● The seat may be cleaned by sponging lightly using warm water and a mild detergent.
● Allow to dry thoroughly before storing.
● Never use the Weathershield™ indoors, or near a heat source, your baby may
overheat.
● Never clean with abrasive, ammonia based, bleach based or spirit type cleaners.
● After exposure to damp conditions, leave fully opened and in a warm environment.
Dry off with a soft cloth. Storing a damp Three-wheeler will encourage mildew to
form.
● Store your Three-wheeler in a dry safe place.
● Your Three-wheeler should be serviced and reconditioned before using it for a
second baby, or within 18 months, whichever is the sooner. This can be arranged by
your local Mothercare store.

Grate some chalk over the patch area and rub the powder
around the patched area. This prevents the patch or rubber
solution sticking to the inside of the tyre when refitted.
Ralle un poco de tiza sobre el área del parche y frote el
polvo sobre la zona parcheada. Esto evitará que el parche
o la solución de caucho se peguen a la parte interior del
neumático al volver a colocarlo.
