Check the safety of the Bugaboo Gecko before use. Ensure that the touch fasteners, the brake
and the safety belts are still working properly, the carry handle is attached properly and that the
carrycot or seat is fitted correctly to the chassis. Check whether the Bugaboo Gecko is damaged.
You should ensure that any damaged or worn parts are repaired immediately.

For replacements, only use parts that have been approved by Bugaboo International.
To prevent mould, do not fold the Bugaboo Gecko and accessories when wet or store them in a
damp place.
cleaning
Clean the Bugaboo Gecko regularly. Use a moist cloth and mild cleaning agent.
The swivel wheels soon get dirty. Remove them from the holders and clean them with lukewarm
water. Dry them well. You can lubricate the swivel wheel mechanism with silicone or Teflon spray.
NEVER lubricate the wheel bearings.
Advice You can purchase a Bugaboo maintenance kit from your supplier.
cleaning the fabric
The Bugaboo Gecko’s fabric is detachable and may be washed in a washing machine. Wash
carefully. Before washing, ALWAYS remove the frame, reinforcements and plastic foam parts.
Note When washing the fabric, remind the following:
- maximum temperature 30 ºC / 85 ºF (warm wash)
- do not use bleach
- do not tumble dry
- do not iron
- do not dry clean
The aerated inlay can be washed at 60ºC. At this temperature, the inlay will become totally
clean. The aerated inlay is placed on top of the thicker foam mattress and can be taken of by
removing the mattress cover. After washing the fabrics, ensure that all parts are replaced in their
original positions. The aerated inlay should be placed on top of the foam mattress. Do not use the
mattress without the aerated inlay.
