How to fold your UPPAbaby Vista V1 for collection
Toddler seat and bassinet come off, then the frame folds in one go and locks itself shut.
Watch it first
Get it ready
Step 1: Empty the basket and any pockets. No need to clean it: we wash every buggy.
Step 2: Take off the rain cover, footmuff, cup holder and anything else clipped on. They go in the box too if you told us about them.
Take it apart
Step 3: Close the canopy on the toddler seat.
Step 4: Press the release buttons on both sides of the toddler seat and lift it off the frame.
Step 5: If you have the bassinet on, press its release buttons on both sides and lift it off.
Step 6: Take the mattress out of the bassinet and collapse it flat.
Fold the frame
Step 7: Put the brake on.
Step 8: Make sure the front wheels are not locked straight, so they can swivel.
Step 9: Pull the handlebar out to its highest position.
Step 10: Pull up the two release triggers on the handlebar and rotate the handlebar down to the ground.
Step 11: Check the storage lock on the side of the frame has clicked shut.
Good to know
- If the box is tight, the rear wheels come off. Press the button in the centre of each wheel hub and pull the wheel away.
- If you need to keep the seat on, it must face forwards and be reclined to the second most upright position.
Pack the box
Step 12: Put the folded frame in the box first, wheels down.
Step 13: Slide the seat unit or carrycot in beside it, then tuck the small bits into the gaps. A carrier bag keeps them together.
Step 14: Close the flaps and re-seal the box with the roll of tape we sent: along the middle seam, over the ends and down the sides.
Step 15: Peel the backing off the wallet, with the DPD label still inside, and stick it on top beside the tape, over any old labels. There is nothing to print.
Buttons and handles move about a little between production years. If yours looks different, the fold steps in your manual are the ones to follow.
