4. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Please only use authentic BRITAX RÖMER replacement seat covers. The
seat cover is an integral part of the child safety seat and is key to ensuring the
trouble-free functionality of the system. Replacement seat covers are available
from your dealer.
• The cover can be removed and washed with a mild detergent in the
delicates programme of the washing machine (30°C). Please observe the
instructions on the washing label of the cover.
• The shoulder pads can be removed and washed in luke-warm soapy
water.
• The plastic parts and the harness can be cleaned with soapy water. Do not
use any caustic cleaning agents (such as solvents).
Care for the harness buckle
To ensure the safety of your child, it is absolutely essential that the harness
buckle continues to function correctly. Harness buckle malfunctions are usu-
ally caused by a build-up of soiling or by external objects:
• When you press the red release button, it takes a long time for the buckle
tongues to be ejected.
• The buckle tongues no longer engage (i.e. when you try to push them in,
they pop out again).
• The buckle tongues engage without an audible "click".
• The buckle tongues are difficult to push in (you feel a certain amount of
resistance).
• The buckle can only be opened by applying extreme force.
Remedy:
Clean the harness buckle so that it functions properly again with no
trouble:
Cleaning the harness buckle
1. Open the harness buckle
04
(press the red release button).
