A properly adjusted headrest 07 ensures optimal protection
for your child on the child seat. Regularly check that the height
of the headrest 07 is suitable for the body height of your child:
The headrest 07 must be adjusted so that the shoulder straps
08
are at the same level as your child’s shoulders, or slightly
higher.
A correctly adjusted headrest 07 ensures that the diagonal
belt 11 is optimally positioned and gives your child optimum
protection. Regularly check that the height of the headrest 07
is suitable for the body height of your child:
The headrest 07 must be positioned so that two fingers
can be inserted between the headrest 07 and your child's
shoulders.
To adjust the height of the headrest to fit your child:
1.
Press and hold the adjustment handle 10 on the back
of the headrest 07 .
2.
The headrest 07 is now unlocked and can be moved
to the desired height. When you release the adjustment
handle 10 , the headrest 07 locks into place.
3.
Place the child seat on the car seat.
4.
Sit your child on the child seat and check the height.
Repeat this procedure until the headrest 07 is at the cor-
rect height.
5.3 Adjusting the headrest for Group II +III (15-36 kg)
1.
If your vehicle is not fitted with ISOFIX insertion aids
as standard, clamp the two insertion aids 02 (which
are supplied along with the seat*), with recess facing
upwards, into the two ISOFIX fixing points 01 in your
vehicle.
TIP:
The ISOFIX fixing points are located between
the seat surface and the backrest of the car seat.
2.
Move the headrest of the car seat to its topmost position.
3.
Pull the grey fabric loop at the back of the child seat 03
until the ISOFIX locking arms 04 are fully extended.
4.
On both sides of the ISOFIX locking arms, squeeze the
04
green locking button 05 and the red release button
06
together. This ensures that both hooks on the ISOFIX
locking arms 04 are open and ready to use.
* The insertion aids make it easier to install the child seat using the ISOFIX fixing points and they
prevent damage to the car seat covers. If they are not being used, remove them and keep them
in a safe place. For vehicles with a folding backrest, the insertion aids need to be removed before
folding the backrest.
Any problems that occur are usually caused by dirt or external objects on the insertion aids and
on the hook. Remove the dirt or external objects to resolve such problems.
