Iv been given a bugaboo cameleon from interstate and it won't open ? and the seat is also attached now ..and I can't get it off .'it was made in 2005. Thank you .

Good Afternoon

Maxi Cosi don't produce the adaptors for this model chassis - please contact Bugaboo customer services and ask them for advice.

The handle is locked up and won't move? Go here to my tips section to find out more www.fixya.com/support/r7805199-fix_bugaboo_handle_lock

Bugaboo only sell the harness with the seat frame as on this site www.babycare.nl/bugaboo-cameleon-seat-frame-p-2465.html not cheap!!! Mountain Buggy use the same clips and do sell them as parts shop.mountainbuggy.com/parts/pre-2010/swift/complete-harness this does require a local seamstress to fit.

The Cameleon base frame must be fully opened and the handle locked for the seat frame to fully engage on the posts and the white lock buttons click out to lock position. www,bugaboo.com/userguides has manuals with pictures if your unsure. If the frame still does not lock check the seat frame can side fully side down the posts and the stubs under the seat frame bracket can fit into the slots in the main frame hub. If this is fully down and seated then the lock buttons may be the problem. Bugaboo supply a small can of silicone spray in the maintenance kits that come with the strollers. What they don't tell you is how vital it is to use it regually on the main hub unit etc if you wish to get a good service life out of your Bugaboo. Give the whole area a good spay then wipe off the excess with a paper towel. Don't use oil based lubricants like WD40. Check my tips section for more info.

The large white buttons you push in are the problem. You can buy them. I found them at www.babycare.nl/spare-parts-bugaboo-cameleon-c-34_124_153.html

Hi

The parasol fits onto the foam surround that you attach the seat/carrycot fabric onto, unless you have the two clip parasol which can be attached to the handle.

The main pivot mechanism is not designed to lock in the open position unless there is a bassinet or seat attached. Could this be the issue?
