9. ADJUSTING THE INCLINATION
To adjust the inclination of the child car seat,
pull the lever located under the seat (H) to-
wards you. When the Gr. 0+ (0-13 kg) child
seat is fitted, it must be adjusted to the maxi-
mum recline position.
In Gr. 1 (9-18 kg) and Gr. 2 (15-25 kg) the car
seat can be adjusted to 3 different positions
(Fig. 40).
10. ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF THE
BELTS AND THE HEADREST
The height of the headrest and belts can be
simultaneously adjusted using the headrest
and belt adjustment button (A) (Fig. 41).
To increase the height of the headrest release
the safety belts by pressing button F and, at
the same time, hold the two child car seat
harnesses under the shoulder straps and pull
them towards you. Then lift button A.
To lower the headrest press button A.
To adjust them correctly, the headrest must
be fitted so the harnesses come out from the
backrest at the height of the child’s shoulders
(Fig. 42).
11. ADJUSTING THE CHILD CAR SEAT
BUCKLE
The child car seat buckle can be adjusted to
two different positions: A and B.
• Position A: use for Gr. 0+ (from 0 up to 13
kg) and Gr. 1 (9-18 kg).
• Position B: use for Gr. 2 (15-25 kg).
The buckle is in position A when purchased.
When the car seat is used for Gr. 2 (15-25 kg) it
is necessary to switch to position B.
Remove the padded crotch strap (I). Turn the
metal connector and switch from position A
to position B (Fig. 43). After this check that the
belt has not rolled up. Pull the buckle several
times to check it is inserted correctly. After ad-
justing, replace the padded crotch strap.
12. REMOVING 5-POINT SEAT BELTS
Loosen the 5-point seat belts as much as pos-

Roll up the belts, replacing them between the

13. SEATING THE CHILD IN THE CHILD CAR

tions below:

top part (Fig. 54)

a damp cloth only. Never use abrasive deter-
gents or solvents. The movable parts of the
child Car seat must not be lubricated.
CHECKING THE CONDITION OF THE COM-
PONENTS
It is recommended to regularly check the con-
dition of the following components to make
sure they are not damaged or worn:
• fabric cover: check that the padding does
not come out from the seams.
Check the condition of the seams: they must
always be intact and undamaged.
• belts: check that the fabric lining is not
frayed or the harness strap worn out in the
parts corresponding to the adjustment strap,
