The headrest on your Duofix is equipped with a head support brake. This can be used if you
want to keep the headrest in a fixed position. To activate the head support brake, pull the
harness adjustment strap until the headrest is at the desired height, you will hear a faint “click”
sound from the headrest as it locks into position. Check that the headrest can not be pulled down any
further and activate the headrest brake by moving the lever (i) across to the right.
WARNING: Do not pull up the headrest with the parking brake activated.
