Things to do
Read these instructions carefully before fitting your car seat. Remember, an incorrect installation could
be dangerous. Put these instruction in a safe place, preferably with the car seat or in the vehicle so that
you can find them for future reference.
Ensure that once the car seat is fitted no parts of the seat or vehicles seat belt can get trapped by a
folding seat or the vehicle door.
Make sure that the vehicles seat belt is tight and the car seat is held firmly in place every time you use
the car seat.
Check every time you fit the car seat that the vehicle seat belt has not become twisted.
Check every time you place your child in the car seat that the safety harness is properly adjusted and
the buckle is correctly locked.
VERY IMPORTANT:
the Isofix connectors must be considered as per additional fitting only. The car
seat safety belts
MUST ALWAYS
be used, according to these instructions.
Regularly check the car seat for signs of wear, especially the cover.
Check that luggage or other heavy or sharp objects are secured in the car. Loose objects are liable to
cause injury in the event of an accident.
When travelling with other passengers using both the front and rear seats, the lighter occupant should
be in the rear of the vehicle and the heavier occupant in the front passenger seat.
Whenever the car seat is left in the vehicle without the child in it, always ensure it is correctly fitted
using the vehicles seat belt and (possibly) the Isofix connectors, to prevent it from being thrown about
in an accident.
Car interiors can become very hot when left in direct sunlight. It is therefore recommended that the car
seat, when not in use, is covered by for example a towel. This prevents components, particularly those
attached to the child car seat becoming hot and burning the child.
Things not to do
Never use the child seat without fastening the child’s harness correctly, and never use it without faste-
ning it into the car as described in these fitting instructions.
IMPORTANT: Never install the seat by the Isofix connectors only. They ALWAYS must be used in
combination with the car seat safety belts.
Never place any padding between the base of the car seat and the vehicles seat as it could impair the
safety of the car seat.
Do not add or modify this product in any way. Never use spare parts that are not recommended or
supplied by the manufacturer.
Do not leave a child in the seat unattended at any time.
Do not allow children to play with the car seat.
This car seat must not be used without the cover. The seat cover should not be replaced with any other
than the one recommended by the manufacturer, because the cover constitutes an integral part of the
restraint.
Do not allow your car seat to come into contact with corrosive substances e.g. battery acid.
Never use this product if it has been in an accident, or it has badly worn.
In the event of an emergency
In case of an emergency your child can be released quickly by pressing the red button on the
buckle of the car safety belt.
If your car seat has been involved in an accident, you MUST dispose of it and purchase a new
