As handle comes around lift the stroller onto the back legs.
Continue rotating the handle until the hinge locks engage.

Attaching the wheels

Slide the rear wheels into the rear axle tube. You will hear a 'CLICK'. To remove rear wheel pull on the release knob while pulling out the wheel.
Position front wheel between the fork. Slide the axle bolt through the fork and wheel.
Thread the nut onto the axle bolt and tighten using the tools provided.
When running or jogging at a fast pace always lock fork for maximum stability.
Finally, connect the rear flap of the cargo basket around the support bar.

Using the sun canopies

To attach the sun canopy slide canopy ratchets onto the housing located on the inside of the frame. Push the ratchets down until they notch in place.
Open the sun canopy and attach the side flaps to the snaps on the handlebar and the seat fabric.
For more coverage reach inside the canopy to pull out extended visor.
When the seat is fully reclined additional ventilation is available by unzipping the rear panel.

Attaching wrist strap

Retrieve the wrist strap from the cargo basket pocket. Feed the loop end of the strap through the slot in the plastic handlebar grip. Bring the loop under and feed it through the buckle until it is tight against the handlebar grip.

OPERATION

Adjusting the handlebar

Push the buttons on the outside of the handlebar to adjust position.

Using the brake

Press down on the brake pedal to engage.
Press down on top of the pedal to disengage the brake or lift up the pedal from the underside.

Always doublecheck that the brake is fully engaged by pushing the stroller forward.

Using the harness

Open the five point safety harness by pressing the button in the middle. Notice how the harness locks together.
To tighten the straps pull down on the ends until the harness fits comfortably and securely.
As your child grows you can rethread the shoulder straps in a higher position on the backrest.
Undo the Velcro pocket at the top of the seat back to access matching slots on the seat back support. Turn the buckle sideways and push it through the slot.
Re-thread the buckle through the chosen slot and lay it flat against seat back support.
Harness waist straps come threaded through the infant restraint loops.

Using infant mode

Infant mode will allow you to safely transport infants under 6 months old.

Recline the backrest to its lowest position by squeezing the backrest adjuster and pulling it down. To raise the seat, hold the strap while pushing up with the adjuster.
Lift footrest to its highest position by pressing the buttons on each side. If using the optional bumper bar, removing it for infant mode will make setup easier.
Unsnap the fabric tongues from under the footrest.
Wrap the fabric tongue around footrest and engage the snaps on seat fabric. Repeat on the opposite side.

Folding Indie Twin

Begin by raising the seats back up and folding down the footrests.
Ensure the front wheels are pointing forward, stand behind the stroller, and simultaneously squeeze both triggers while lifting the handlebar.
Fold the handle forward.
Continue fold until you hear the autolock engage. Fold down handlebar for a more compact fold.
Use the carrying handles and frame to safely carry your Indie Twin.

MAINTENANCE

Adding air to the tires

Indie Twin tires have inner tubes and will occasionally need air added. You will find the pump in the cargo basket pocket.
Begin by removing the valve cap. Keep it close by and out of reach of children.
Push pump head firmly onto the valve*. You may hear some air escaping. Flip up the pump head lever to seal the connection.
Unfold pump handle and inflate the tire to 30psi/ 2bar. The tire should feel firm but with some give.

* Helpful hint: When the pump is new it may be difficult to push the pump onto the valve. Unscrewing the top cap of the pump by a half turn should make it easier.

Cleaning instructions

Seat Fabric
Machine wash seat fabrics and canopy fabrics using cold water on a delicate cycle. Do not machine-dry. Please don't iron. Only air-dry. For instructions on removing the fabric go to www.bumbleride.com/support.

Frame & Parts
If the stroller comes in contact with sand, salt or snow, hose off the wheels, forks & brakes with water. Use a damp cloth and a non-toxic all purpose cleaner for the frame & handlebar.

Caring for the cork handlebar

Use warm water, non-toxic soap or All-Purpose Cleaner on a washcloth or sponge and gently wipe clean (do not use cleansers containing bleach or other harsh materials). To dry, simply press a dry cloth onto the cork and let air dry completely overnight. When folding, stowing or traveling with the stroller, adjust the handlebar so the wheels do not touch and rub on the cork handle. When folded, do not leave cork handle in standing water.
