stress and the child can stretch his/her legs. For use as a pram, only place the carrycot horizontally

placed on a horizontal, stable and dry surface.This carrycot is only to be used in combination with
a bugaboo undercarriage with item code 62100.

at any position within 300 mm from the harness attachmentspoints should not be reduced to
less than 140 mm when the mattress is in position.
