Suitability of the place chosen for installing the KOOS
European standards establish the compatibility parameters between
safety seats and vehicles, however, you do need to check a few things
before installing the safety seat for the first time:
1 The seat belt buckles should not be resting on hard edges, as in the
event of an accident this will decrease their resistance. With the KOOS
in your vehicle check that the buckle does not rest on the corner of the
baby carrier. If in doubt, consult your vehicle manufacturer.
2 If the seat belt is short:
a. In most vehicles, the height of the shoulder belt can be adjusted,
adjust it to the lowest position.
b. If the vehicle seat can be moved, move it backwards.
Position 4: AUTO. Non-rollover position when travelling in the car.
To change the position, press both buttons (10) on the handle (2d) and
turn the handle to the required position.
Choosing where to install the safety seat
Choosing the right place where you want to install the safety seat in
the car will reduce the risk of injury to your baby in the event of an
accident.
As far as possible, install the safety seat on the back seats. We strongly
recommend that the baby is accompanied by someone sitting next to
them to take care of their every need. Of the three back seats, the mid-
dle one is the safest.
If you are travelling alone with your baby, it is good if you can see them
without having to take your eyes off the road. Put them in the passen-
ger seat providing that it is NOT fitted with an Air-Bag or IT IS DISCON-
NECTED. Under no circumstances allow yourself to be distracted from
the road to see to your baby. Stop the car in a safe place.
