Safety information
WARNING
If the upper retaining strap is incorrectly
used for the child restraint system, the
protective effect can be reduced. There is
a risk of injury. Make sure that the upper
retaining strap is not guided across sharp
edges and without twisting to the upper
retaining strap.
WARNING
If the rear backrest is not locked, the pro-
tective effect of the child restraint system
is limited or there is none. In particular
situations, for instance braking maneuvers
or in case of an accident, the rear backrest
can fold forward. There is a risk of injuries
or danger to life. Make sure that the rear
backrests are locked.
NOTICE
The anchors for the upper retaining straps
of child restraint systems are only pro-
vided for these retaining straps. When
other objects are mounted, the anchors
can be damaged. There is a risk of damage
to property. Only mount child restraint
systems to the upper retaining straps.
