Using the seat level indicator
The level indicator is designed to help you install the car seat at
the correct angle on the passenger seat. It is located on the
outside of the seat as indicated in Diagram 1. above.
When the seat is fitted to your vechicle, the level indictor bell
should always fit inside it’s housing as indicated in Diagram 2
above.
Adjust the child restraint to the proper level to ensure maximum
protection for your child. A tightly rolled towel under the front
edge of the car seat can be used to achieve the correct level.
IMPORTANT
– always check the indicator before and after fitting
your car’s seat belts.

Securing the harness to your child
1. Place your child in the seat. Make sure that your child’s back and
bottom are flat against the seat. This will maximise comfort and
allow the harness to properly secure your child.
2. Position the height of harness according to your child’s height.
The harness straps should be level with their shoulders.
IMPORTANT
- Do not use the car seat with the harness if the
child’s shoulders are above the highest slots in the backrest or
if the child’s weight exceeds 13kg (to adjust the shoulder strap
height see ‘Adjusting the shoulder belt height’).
As pictured in Diagram 1, combine the two locking clips together
and insert them into the buckle housing until you hear a
CLICK!.
When it is connected it should appear as
pictured in Diagram
2. Check that the buckle is secure by pulling the buckle. There
should be a strong connection.
To tighten the shoulder straps, push the harness adjuster button
at the front of the seat and pull the harness adjusting strap.
3. To loosen the shoulder straps, push the harness adjuster button
and pull the two shoulder straps towards yourself.
IMPORTANT
- for proper tightness, one finger (1cm) should fit
between the harness straps and the child’s shoulders.
4. To open the harness, press the red buckle release button on the
buckle.
