Is this toy safe for babies?
Yes, it is made of sturdy plastic and designed as a baby carriage accessory, but adult supervision is always recommended during use.
Troubleshooting
Steering wheel is loose on the bar
Ensure the clamp is fully closed and tightened around the front bar. If the bar is significantly smaller than the maximum diameter, consider adding a thin layer of soft material (like felt) inside the clamp for a snugger fit, or check if an adapter is available from the manufacturer.
Horn is not making a sound
Check if there is a small protective tab or cover over the horn mechanism that needs to be removed. If not, inspect the horn mechanism for any visible damage or obstruction. If damaged, contact customer support.
Difficult to attach or remove
Ensure you are aligning the clamp correctly with the stroller's front bar. If it's too tight, double-check the bar's diameter against the product's specifications. If it's too loose, refer to the solution for a loose steering wheel.
