Care and maintenance
General care and maintenance instructions
• Never expose your vehicle to excessive sunlight for long periods of time.
• Always use a rain cover when snowing or raining.
• Never store your vehicle in cold and/or damp places.
• Should the chassis become wet, dry it off promptly. Make sure vehicle is completely dry before storing.
• If the vehicle is used near the ocean or salted roads, spray the chassis with a hose and dry.
• Always be careful with the chassis, especially during transport or storage. The surface of the chassis is
fragile.
Routine Inspection
• Regularly clean the chassis and metal parts of the vehicle; dry off and lubricate all joints of the chassis.
When the vehicle is used during the winter time, cleaning of the vehicle should be done at least once a
week. Lack of maintenance could cause corrosion. Should corrosion on the surface occur, which is a pos-
sibility, you are required to remove this with car wax.
• It is recommended to lubricate the wheel axles every three months (clean axles with a cloth prior to
lubrication). Axles may be lubricated with petroleum jelly or automobile oil.
Regularly check that:
• all chassis locking devices are functioning properly.
• all rivets, nuts and bolts are firmly tightened and not broken.
• all plastic parts are not cracked or broken.
• the wheel bearings are in a good condition.
• all Velcro fasteners are securely fastened.
• all elastic straps are in a good condition.
• the secondary locking mechanism is intact and can move freely.
• the brake works.
PLEASE OBSERVE
• Always get in touch with the retailer you purchased your vehicle from. This applies when your vehicle
requires a service with original Emmaljunga parts or in case of technical matters that require a
professional evaluation.
• The product you have chosen complies with the guarantee guidelines that apply from 1st July 2002 (SFS
2002:587). You have the right to request this information from the retailer where you purchased this ve-
hicle.
WARNING
• Tyres can when in contact with PVC-floor or other plastic materials cause discoloration. Always use wheel
protection if the vehicle is stored on delicate surfaces.
Manual Scooter 4 / Scooter 4 S v. 4.8
• 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.
