section by the handle and lift it and place
it in the trunk. Put it as far to one side
as possible.
Next put the section with the front
wheels into the trunk.

section to use the handle (red) or the
front chrome bumper.
Be sure that none of the parts touch.
If they do, they will rub, making a noise
and marking one another. Also ensure
that the front tyres are unable to roll.

cloth or old blanket should be thrown
over the parts at this point to avoid
damage being caused from the parts rub-
bing together.

into a space in the trunk or place it in
the back seat of your vehicle. Lower the
trunk lid carefully, ensuring that it is free
