IMPORTANT: 

If using an Extension Strap, positioning the attachment clip above the child may lead to 

injury in an accident therefore make sure that the attachment clip is not positioned in front of the vehicle 
seat. Use a shorter extension strap or no extension strap.

If the car's upper anchorage fitting is behind the vehicle seat back you may need to use an extension strap 
as part of the top tether installation.

The Top tether strap must be fitted at all times when the baby is in the car when using either the 
seatbelt or the ISOFLEX connectors.
Always secure the loose end of the top tether strap to prevent it hanging out of the car or being 
accessible by the child.
THIS RESTRAINT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE WHERE THE TOP TETHER STRAP MAY FALL 
INTO A SPLIT IN THE SEAT BACK OR OFF THE SIDE OF THE SEAT.

ALWAYS ATTACH TOP TETHER HOOK AND REMOVE SLACK IN THE TOP TETHER STRAP.

         IMPORTANT :

It is normal to have some sideways movement if the headrest is pushed sideways. A firmer fit can be 
achieved by applying more force to the ISOFLEX straps. If the tether strap is over tightened then the angle 
of the seat may be affected; Do not over tighten.

seat front.

ANGULAR ADJUSTMENT OF RESTRAINT

Some vehicle seats have more rearward slope than others. If the angle of the seat causes the baby to 
be too upright for comfort, the angle may be altered by placing a firm packing between the seat and the 
underside of the base. Packing can be a firmly rolled up towel.

Do not remove all of the rearward slope by over packing. Always leave a rearward slope angle of 
approximately 10 to 15 degrees as shown

The stabilising 
bar does not need 
to contact the 
back of the car's 
seat, provided the 
seatbelt is tight. If 
desired this gap 
may be packed.
