of the child car seat and that the crotch strap
(I) is positioned correctly.
Take the belts and join the two tabs of the
buckle (Fig. 21). Push the two tabs firmly inside
the buckle until you hear a “click” (Fig. 22). To
ensure safety, the two tabs of the buckle were
designed so that they cannot be fastened one
at a time or alone.
To tension the car seat safety harnesses, pull the
harness adjustment strap (F), until the harness-
es adhere to the child’s body correctly (Fig. 23).
WARNING!
Do not over-tighten the harnesses
around the child: if you can insert one finger
between the harness and your child’s shoul-
ders, it means that they are tightened correctly.
WARNING!
Check that the harness is not
twisted.
Use the rotation button (K) to turn the car
seat until it is in the forward facing position
(Fig. 24).

To change the configuration from 40-105 cm

following steps:
• Loosen the harnesses on the car seat com-
pletely by pressing the harness adjustment
button (E) (Fig. 25).
• Use the headrest adjustment ring (G) to po-
sition the headrest at maximum extension
(Fig. 26).
• Open the buckle (D), remove the padded
crotch strap (I) (Fig. 27) and pass the body
of the buckle through the slot and the foam
panel (Fig. 28).
• Take the harnesses and join the two tabs of
the buckle (Fig. 29). After having closed the

7. INSTALLING THE CAR SEAT AND SEAT-
ING THE CHILD (100-125 cm)
To convert the car seat to the 100-125 cm con-
figuration, proceed as follows:
Disconnect the Isofix connectors (M) by acting
on the buttons (N) (Fig. 34). To reposition the
support leg (Q) press the adjustment button
(T), which allows you to shorten the support
leg (Fig. 35). Next press the button (S), push the
support leg toward the base (Fig. 36) and fold
inwards (Fig. 37).
Installation can make use of both the Isofix
connectors and the vehicle's 3-point seat belt,
or just the vehicle's 3-point seat belt.
If you wish to use the Isofix connectors along
with the vehicle's 3-point seat belt proceed as
follows:
• Position the car seat on the seat of the vehi-
cle in the front-facing direction.
• Extract the Isofix connectors (M) completely,
pressing on the buttons (N) (Fig. 38).
• Fasten both Isofix connectors (M) to the
corresponding Isofix hooks found on the
vehicle seat, between the backrest and the
seat (Fig. 39).
WARNING!

to make sure that the child car seat has been
installed correctly on both sides. Also check
that the child car seat is resting perfectly
against the backrest of the car.
• To fasten the connectors, push on the Isofix
buttons, a characteristic click will inform you
that the connectors are properly fastened
and the indicators (O) will change to green
(Fig. 40).
• Push the child car seat firmly against the
backrest of the car (Fig. 41).
• Run the diagonal segment of the vehicle seat
belt behind the headrest and through the
green belt guide (X) (Fig. 42).
• Place the child in the car seat, verifying that
the child's back rests firmly against the back-

• Fasten the vehicle seat belt to the buckle run-
ning the abdominal and diagonal segment
through the green belt guide (Y) (Fig. 43).
