5.1.3 Back height and recline angle adjustment
Fig 5.1.3.1
To adjust the back height, first un-tuck the
cover from the bottom of the seat (the cover
doesn’t need to be removed).
Next, turn the 2 large central hand wheels
on the back plate, as shown in Fig 5.1.3.1,
anticlockwise by either half a turn or, if
necessary, one full turn.
Once these are loose, raise or lower the
upper section of the back to the required
height, and turn the 2 hand wheels
clockwise until tight to lock it back into
place.
Once adjusted, tuck the cover back around
the bottom of the seat with the excess
sitting between the lower back plate and the
gas spring.
N.B. Before adjusting the back height you
may
need to remove any lateral trunk
supports and/or the top straps of any chest
harnessing.
To adjust the back angle, grip the
adjustment lever and lift it up, whilst holding
the rear cross bar with your thumb. (See Fig
5.1.3.1)
To recline the seat, pull the top of the seat
backwards to the required angle, and
release the adjustment lever. For seats
fitted with a dynamic gas strut, the dynamic
strut restrictor will reduce the amount of
seat recline (see Fig. 5.1.3.2). If full recline
is needed, the restrictor needs to be
removed (see Snappi Pushchair Workshop
Manual about how to do this).
Warning: the
restrictor must be in place if this Snappi
is to be transported.
To bring the seat back to a 90° position, pull
the release lever and gently lift the seat (the
gas spring will assist in returning the seat).
Once at the required angle, release the
adjustment lever.
