IMPORTANT - DO NOT USE FORWARD FACING BEFORE THE CHILD'S WEIGHT EXCEEDS 9 KG.
2.
ALWAYS
read and follow exactly the instructions that accompany your vehicle and child restraint.
3.
DO NOT
use this restraint with vehicle seats that face the side.

5.
ONLY
use this child restraint on vehicle seats with backs that lock into place.

Correct
Wrong
DO NOT
use a child restraint in a sit where an activate air
bag is fitted.
Use this place only if it is equipped with ISOFIX and 3-point
seat belt.
8. All infants must use a rear-facing car seat. A rear-facing seat provides the best protection for your child’s head, neck, and spine
in a sudden stop or crash. As long as your child still fits within the manufacturer’s weight and height limits, they are safest using a
rear-facing seat until 2, 3, or even 4 years old.
9.
Adjust, or remove, the vehicle headrest, in the seat where the child restraint is to be fastened, so that the back of the child restraint
rests against the vehicle seat-back.
10. The headrest on the vehicle seat in front of the child should be put in its lowest position.
11. Once your child has outgrown the larger rear-facing car seat – and is at least 2 years old – they can move to a forward-facing car
seat with a 5-point harness. Keep your child in a 5-point harness until they weigh at least 18 kg and can sit straight and tall without
moving out of position or unbuckling. This may be at 4, 5, or even 6 years old.
SEAT BELT WARNINGS
1.
CAUTION:
It is important for the child to sit properly within the vehicle seat belts. When the vehicle belt is buckled, the lap belt
should be low on the hips, just touching the thighs, and the shoulder belt should lie across the middle of the shoulder. If the child
leans out or moves the belt behind the back or places it under the arm, it will not provide the intended restraint.
2.
Make sure that you can fit no more than one finger between the harness and your baby (1 cm).
3.
IMPORTANT:
Any straps holding the restraint to the vehicle should be tight, that any straps restraining the child should be adjusted
to the child’s body, and the straps should not be twisted.
4.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure that any lap strap is worn low down so that the pelvis is firmly engaged.
5.
ALWAYS
pull the seat belt tight to make sure it is not twisted.
NEVER
twist the seat belt!
6.
Snugly adjust the belts provided with this child restraint around your child. If straps are not snugly adjusted, the child may be
ejected from the seat in the event of an accident.
7.
If the vehicle seat belts are not routed and fastened correctly, the child restraint may not protect the child in a crash.
8.
DO NOT
allow the seat belt release button to touch the child restraint. Accidental contact may cause the seat belt to release. If
necessary, turn the seat belt release button away from the child restraint or move the child restraint to a different location.
9.
Failure to adjust the vehicle seat belts snugly around the child may result in the child striking the vehicle’s interior during a sudden
stop or crash. Serious injury or death may occur.
10. A snug strap should not allow any slack. It lies in a relatively straight line without sagging. It does not press on the child’s flesh or
push the child’s body into an unnatural position.
11. When using this child restraint,
NEVER
use a lap belt only. You
MUST
use the vehicle seat belts that have a lap/shoulder combination.
12. The shoulder belt
MUST
be routed properly.
13. The shoulder belt
MUST NOT
cross the child’s neck or fall off the child’s shoulder. If you cannot adjust the shoulder belt to properly
lay midway between the child’s shoulder and neck
AND
at or above the shoulder, try another seating location or do not use the
child restraint.
14.
STRANGULATION HAZARD:
Children have strangled in loose or partially buckled harness straps.
15.
NEVER
use clothing or blankets that interfere with providing a properly tightened harness. An unsecured or improperly harnessed
child can come out of the restraint during a crash. Place blankets over child
AFTER
harness have been properly tightened.
16.
