IMPORTANT INFORMATION
•
Without the approval of the Type Approval Authority, the car seat may not be
modified or added to in any way.
•
In order to keep your child properly protected, it is absolutely essential that
you use the car seat as described in this user guide.
•
This car seat may only be installed on vehicle seats which are approved for
the use of child restraint systems according to the vehicle manual.
•
Only suitable for vehicle seats with automatic three-point belts approved in
accordance with UN Regulation No.16 or a comparable standard.
•
Do not use any load bearing contact points other than those described in the
user guide and marked on the child restraint.
•
The full surface of the backrest of the car seat must make contact with the
backrest of the vehicle.
•
The shoulder belt must run upwards and back at a recline. It must never run
forward to the upper belt point in your vehicle.
•
The vehicle belt buckle must never cross the belt guide of the seat. If the
belt whip is too long, the car seat is not suitable for use in this position in the
vehicle. In case of doubt please contact the child restraint manufacturer.
•
The three-point vehicle belt must only be passed through the designated
routings. The belt routings are described in detail in this user guide and are
marked in red on the car seat.
•
The lap belt must run as low as possible across your child’s groin to have
optimum effect in the event of an accident.
•
Before each use make sure that the automatic three-point vehicle belt is
correctly adjusted and fits tightly to the child’s body. Never twist the belt!
•
Only an optimally adjusted headrest can offer your child maximum protection
and comfort while ensuring that the shoulder belt can be fitted smoothly.
•
For usage in Group 1 the impact shield must be used.
•
The car seat must always be secured correctly with the automatic three-point
vehicle belt in the vehicle even when not in use.
•
Always ensure that the car seat is never jammed when closing the vehicle
door or adjusting the back seat.
•
Luggage or any other objects present in the vehicle must always be firmly
secured. Otherwise, they may be thrown within the vehicle, which could
cause fatal injuries.
•
The car seat must never be used without the seat cover. Ensure that only
an original CYBEX seat cover is used, as the cover is a key element of the
seat’s function.
•
Never leave your child unattended in the vehicle.
•
Parts of this child restraint system can heat up when exposed to direct
sunlight and could potentially burn your child’s skin. Protect your child and
the car seat from direct sun exposure.
•
An accident may cause damage to the car seat that is not identifiable with
the naked eye. Please replace the car seat after an accident. In case of
doubt, please consult your dealer or the manufacturer.
•
Do not use this car seat for more than 11 years. The car seat is exposed to
high stress during its product life span, which leads to changes in the quality
of the material with increasing age.
•
The plastic parts can be cleaned with a mild cleaning agent and warm water.
Never use harsh cleaning agents or bleaches!
•
On some vehicle seats made of sensitive materials, the use of car seats may
leave marks and/or cause discolouration. To prevent this, you can place a
blanket or towel or similar underneath the car seat to protect the vehicle seat.
