GottaGo User Manual

SECTION 12: Clinical Set Up

12.1 Adjusting the Seat Position

After your dry run of the seat, you should have an idea of a suitable seat position 

for your child. The most desirable position to achieve is having the feet behind or 

underneath the knees. 

Unlock the seat connectors in the frame. To do this, gently push the side of the seat 

towards the frame and then lift the lock. 

Slide the seat along the groove to the desired position and then ensure the seat is 

locked back into place.

Do not adjust the seat 

with your child in it.

Feet underneath knees

Feet behind knees

Feet ahead of knees
