Guidelines to cleaning and maintaining strollers

Proper maintenance is essential to extend the life of your stroller and keep it hygienic for your child. Start by cleaning regularly with a wet cloth and mild soap to tidy the frame and fabric. For removable fabrics, tackle stains quickly using a mild fabric cleaner. Clean the wheels and brakes, removing dirt and ensuring the brakes function properly. Lubricate moving parts with light oil on hinges and wheel axles to maintain smooth operation. Regularly check for wear and tear on straps, buckles, and the frame to spot any damage. Finally, store the stroller in a dry, cool place when not in use to prevent rust and keep it in top condition.
