sources or in direct sunlight.

seat use. In order to protect the upholstery, we recommend using car seat covers available as accessories.
DANGER! For the safety of your child:
• Please use the Caretero Sport Classic car seat only to secure your child in the car.
• This car seat must be installed forward-facing only for the I, II, III (9-36kg) weight groups with use of 3-point car
seat belts
• This car seat should be used with the integrated 5-point seat belts for weight group from 9 to 18 kg (approx. from 9
months up to about 4 years).
• Do not place the car seat on a passanger seat with active air bag.
• Check if the car seat is installed properly before each trip.
• The rear passenger seats are the safest place to install the car seat.
• Please make sure that all the elements are properly installed and that the car seat is not jammed by foldable seats or
doors.
• This car seat may not be used if the seat belts securing the child have not been properly engaged.
• Do not use or transport the car seat when it is not properly installed in the car.
• Do not use other fixing points other than those described in this manual and marked on the car seat itself.
• The shoulder belt pads are important in keeping the child safe. Please use them at all times.
• Regularly check the seat belts, especially the fixing points, stitchings and adjustment devices.
• In urgent cases it is necessary to unfasten the child quickly. This means the 5-point seat belt buckle is not very
resistant to tinkering by your child. Please teach the baby not to play with the belt buckle.
• Do not use the car seat if any parts of it have been damaged or became loose during an accident.
• It is important to ensure that all lap belts are running low enough, to keep the child’s pelvis secure.
• Please take special notice that all the belts securing the child car seats are tightened, that the child seat belts are
adjusted to the child’s body and are not twisted.
• Stiff points and plastic elements must be placed and fixed in such manner, as not to be jammed by moving car seats
or doors during everyday use of the car seat.
• Do not modify the car seat’s construction in any way or install additional elements to it without the permission of
appropriate authorities.
• After installing the seat and securing the child, make sure that the car seat belt buckle is located properly, which
guarantees safe fixing of the seat. The belt buckle should not be placed directly near the shell of the seat or in any
openings of the seat shell. If such situation happens, try a different fixing place in the car or shorten the buckle belt by
twisting it.
• The car seat may not be used without the fabric cover. The cover may not be replaced with a different one, which is
not recommended by the manufacturer, as the cover is an integral part of the seat.
• It is not recommended to use the seat for a longer period of time than 5 years since the production date, as the
physical properties of the product may detoriate (eg. plastic aging).
