USE OF THE CHILD RESTRAINT DEVICE ON BOARD OF
CARS
• Do not use the child restraint device in positions or
configurations other than those illustrated in this handbook.
• The carrycot must only be placed on the rear seats of the
vehicle, using both safety belts in 3 points.
• The carrycot must only be placed on the seats of the
vehicle that are securely fastened to the vehicle framework
and facing the direction of travel.
• The carrycot must be positioned transversely to the
vehicle’s direction of travel.
• DANGER! Using the child restraint device is PROHIBITED
ON rear SEATS THAT HAVE FRONT AIRBAGS!
• Make sure that reclining seats are blocked in vertical
position pursuant to the instruction of the car’s manufacturer.
• During your journey, refrain from leaving unattended
objects or bags in the car: make sure that they are stored
securely as, in the event of an accident, they can cause injury.
• Check that straps with buckles are not twisted and are not
trapped in the car door or the mobile parts of the car seat.
• Check that all the safety belts that secure the child restraint
device to the vehicle’s seats are always fastened and taut.
Periodically verify the efficacy of the waist harness seal.
• Never remove the baby from the child restraint device
while the vehicle is moving; if necessary, stop as soon as
possible in a safe place.
• Safe and appropriate driving behaviour is recommended:
the Inglesina Carrycot 3P Vehicle Kit is an effective restrain
system but is not, on its own, sufficient to avoid severe injury
in the event of a violent car crash. Please bear in mind that
accidents, even those which occur at low speed, can be
extremely dangerous for all car passengers.
• When vehicle is fully occupied lighter passengers should
sit in the rear and heavier ones in the front.
• During long journeys take frequent breaks as the child will
tire easily.
• Car interiors can become very hot if the vehicle is left in
direct sunlight. Cover the carrycot with a towel when it is not
in use to prevent its components from overheating.
