Silver Cross pram problems

We have a Silver Cross pistachio 3D travel system pram.
Now, I'm not mega tall (about 5ft 6) and it seems that handles are just too low and I'm finding that our feet catch on the bottom frame sometimes as we walk. Has anyone got one of these, or similar, and is there a way to extend the handles?? I just wonder how really tall people get on with them.
Also, we're currently using it as a pram for our 2 week old and the cover doesn't seem long enough to fit right up to the press studs so it slides off!! Are we missing something?
Thanks.

the handles should extend. Have you tried pinching the top clips on handles up towards the top and then pulling the handle up? does it go down when you do it?

im 5'6 to and i kick the base of most of my prams. Its even worse with a buggy board on!
It was for just these reasons we discounted the Silver Cross 3D travel system.
I was very keen on one, until hubby (who is 6ft 4 and has size 12 feet) struggled to use it. Instead we bought a Loola Up and we are both well chuffed with it. Dinky me at 5ft 4 and hubby can both use it without compromise.

Thanks for your replies.
Yeah red we did extend the handles up with those clips after a few days struggling with it. But its only slightly better.
We only tested it out around the nursery shop and I guess its just not the same as walking outside. Suppose we'll just have to get used to it.
Or maybe we need to develop a new walk...or get smaller feet. Lol!
Thanks again.
