If a car is fitted with standard headrests, these may be adjusted or removed
to make it easier to install the child car seat. Please ensure that the car
headrests are replaced and re-positioned correctly when an adult is travelling
in the car.
The seat may not be transported unsecured in the vehicle, even if there is
no child passenger. Otherwise passengers risk injury during the journey
or in the event of an accident. For this reason, the belt must always be
fastened when travelling.

_ SECURING THE CHILD WITH THE THREE-POINT SEAT BELT
Seat your child well back in the seating area. Pass the three-point belt across
the front of the child to the seat belt buckle, and fasten it in the same way as
for an adult.
(There must be an audible click.)
Now position the straps. Insert the lap belt (
F
) into the belt apertures (
G
) on
the seat shell (
I
) on both sides, and the diagonal belt (
D
) into the belt aperture
on the side with the buckle. Insert the diagonal belt (
D
) into the shoulder
strap slot (
C
). Ensure that the belt is inside the securing hook (
C1
).
Adjust the head section to the appropriate height by pressing the adjustment
handle (
B
) and pushing the head section. The head section may be adjusted
to seven heights, and it must click into place when the adjustment handle is
released.
The shoulder belt guide (
C
) should be slightly above the top of the child’s
shoulder. At the same time, the shoulder belt should pass centrally between
the child’s neck and the outer edge of the shoulder.
