Accessories

Your child seat and its cover have been carefully designed, manufactured and tested
to the highest safety standards.

Do not put your child’s safety at risk by using without a seat cover. The seat cover
should not be replaced with any other than the one recommended by Mothercare,
because the cover constitutes an integral part of the restraint performance.

The safety of this seat may be compromised by the use of accessories not approved
by Mothercare.

OPTIONAL CAR SEAT BASE :

For your added convenience, an optional car seat base is available to purchase 
separately.

The base makes fitting your car seat into your car much simpler. Once the base 
is fitted correctly into the car, the car seat can be simply "clicked" in and out each
time thereafter, minimising disturbance to your baby.

For further details, please contact your nearest Mothercare store.
