EXTREME HAZARD!
DO NOT
use the child seat on a
passenger seat fitted with an active
front airbag unless your vehicle
manufacturer confirms that it is safe.
DO NOT
use anything, such as a cushion or coat,
to raise the child seat off the passenger seat. In an
accident the child seat and your car seat belts would
not be able to protect your child as well as they should.
DO NOT
use the child seat in the home. It has not
been designed for home use and should only be used
in your car.
DO NOT
attempt to dismantle, modify or add to any
part of the child seat or change the way its harness
or your car seat belts are made or used. The official
approval is no longer valid if modifications are made.
NO
modifications may be made to the child seat
other than by the manufacturer.
DO NOT
leave children alone in your car, even for a
short time.
DO NOT
leave loose objects, such as luggage
or books, in the back of your car. They must be
properly secured, because if you have to stop your
car suddenly loose objects will keep moving and can
then cause serious injuries. Large and heavy loose
objects are a particular risk.
DO NOT
leave folding passenger seats unlatched. If
you have to stop your car suddenly a loose seat back
could injure your child.
DO NOT
allow children to play with or adjust the
child seat.
DO
keep this user guide in the user guide storage
pocket.
DO
cover the child seat if your car is left in direct
sunlight. Fittings can become hot to touch in sunny
weather and the cover may become faded.
DO
make sure that the child seat does not become
trapped by a folding passenger seat or in the door of
your car.
DO
make sure that you adjust the harness to fit the
clothes your child is wearing before each journey – a
fitting for winter clothes may be too slack for a child
wearing summer clothes.

You must ensure that you follow these instructions carefully and correctly. If this seat is not fitted
securely and your child is not strapped in correctly, your child and other passengers are at serious
risk of injury in the event of an accident
IMPORTANT!
The Hampshire Trading Standards Authority and
Britax advise that child car seats should not be
bought or sold second-hand. Please dispose of your
child seat safely. Do not sell or pass it on.
After an accident, the child seat and your car seat
belts should be replaced. Although they may look
undamaged, if you were to have another accident
the child seat and your car seat belts may not be able
to protect your child as well as they should.
No child seat is escape proof
Harness systems cannot be designed to be
completely “child proof” and yet comply with the
legal requirements of European Standard ECE R44.
The harness must be fastened and adjusted correctly
at all times and children encouraged to remain
within the harness system.
Looking after your child seat
Food and drink may find their way inside the
buckle of the harness. This can stop it from working
properly – it will not click. Wash in warm water until
clean
(dia A and B)
.
Pull the cover from the top of the seat and bring the
straps through the shell to the front of the seat and
remove the chest pads. Unfasten the buckle and
remove the comfort pad by unfastening the hook and
eye strip. Gently pull the cover off the seat, easing the
shoulder straps adjuster, shoulder straps, and harness
buckle and adjuster strap through the slots in the cover.
To refit the cover, reverse this method of removal.
Make sure the straps are not twisted when refitting
through the cover and on to the yoke.
IMPORTANT –
The cover is a safety feature.
NEVER
use the child seat without it. Don’t put your child’s
safety at risk by using other makes of replacement
cover, they could stop the child seat from protecting
your child as well as it should.
A replacement cover is available from your Britax
stockist or contact Britax Customer Service
Department on
