Product Care

IMPORTANT: Ensure you follow the regular maintenance and care instructions. Pay special attention to maintenance and care of the brakes.

General Maintenance
  • Regularly inspect the locking devices, brakes, harness assembly, catches, seat adjusters, joints and fixings to ensure they are secure and in full working order.
  • Do not store your SKIP² in your car for prolonged periods of time, especially when it is hot as this may lead to warping some of the plastics parts and reduce the life of your product.
  • The brakes and wheels are subject to wear and should be replaced as and when necessary. Brakes are available through contacting our Customer Care team at
  • Should any parts of the SKIP² become stiff or difficult to operate, ensure that dirt is not the cause. Use a light application of a silicone spray lubricant, ensuring the lubricant penetrates between the components. Use sparingly, as excessive application may encourage the accumulation of dirt. Regular light lubrication of moving parts will extend the life of your SKIP² and make operating, opening and folding much easier.
  • Do not leave the SKIP² in sunlight for prolonged periods of time, as the colour of some fabrics may fade.
  • Store the SKIP² in a dry, well-ventilated and safe place.
  • Do not use your SKIP² if any screws are loose or missing or if any component is damaged.

  • Sponge clean with warm water and a mild detergent and then air dry.
  • Do not use any abrasive or corrosive cleaning products on your SKIP².
  • Do not use products that contain alcohol, as they may cause stains, discolouring and damage to the leatherette parts on your SKIP². This includes applying hand sanitiser to your hands or directly on the product.
