For the protection of all vehicle occupants
In the case of an emergency stop or an accident, persons or objects which are not properly secured in the car can cause injury to other vehicle
occupants. For this reason, please always check that...
• the backrests of the vehicle seats are locked (e.g. that the latch on a folding rear seat bench is engaged).
• all heavy or sharp-edged objects in the vehicle (e.g. on the parcel shelf) are secured.
• all persons in the vehicle have their seatbelts fastened.
• the child safety seat is always secured in the car via the ISOFIX anchoring and the Top Tether, even when there is no child in the seat
.
For the protection of your child
• The more snugly the harness fits over your child‘s body, the safer your child will be.
• Please do not ever leave your child unattended in the child safety seat in the vehicle.
Preparatory work
1. If your vehicle is not equipped with the ISOFIX insert guides as
standard, clip the two insert guides
02
which are included with the
seat* with the cut-out facing upwards onto the two ISOFIX attach-
ment points
01
of your vehicle.
TIP: The ISOFIX attachment points are located between the surface
and the backrest of the vehicle seat.
2. Move the head restraint on the vehicle seat to the upper position.
* The insert guides make it easier to install the child safety seat with the aid of the ISO-
FIX attachment points and prevent damage to the seat covering. When not in use, they
should be removed and stored in a safe place. On vehicles with a folding backrest the
insert guides must be removed before the backrest is folded.
Any problems which occur are usually caused by dirt or foreign objects on the insert
guides and on the hooks. Clean off any dirt or foreign objects to remedy this type of
problem.

Take the Top Tether 14 and press
the metal tongue 28 away from
the strap to lengthen the strap and
pull the Top Tether 14 by the snap
hook 26 until it makes a V-shape.
8.
Guide the Top Tether
14
on the
left and right-hand sides past the
headrest.

Hook the snap hook 26 into the
Top Tether anchoring point recom-
mended in your vehicle owner‘s

the shoulders of your child.
Caution:
The shoulder straps
07
must not be twisted or
swapped.
Caution:
Check that the child
safety seat is correctly
attached
11.
Press the adjusting button 08
and at the same time pull both
shoulder straps 07 forwards.
Caution: Do not pull on the shoul-
der pads 06 .
12.
Open the harness buckle 05
(press the red button).
• Use on the rear seat:
Move the front seat forward far enough that you child‘s feet cannot hit the backrest of the front seat (to prevent risk of injury).
• The child safety seat can get hot in direct sunshine. Caution: Children‘s skin is delicate and could be injured as a result. Protect the child
seat against intensive direct sunlight when it is not currently in use.
• Only allow your child to enter and exit the vehicle on the pavement side.
• Make stops during longer journeys to give your child an opportunity to run about and play.
To protect your vehicle
Some vehicle seat coverings made of more delicate materials (e.g. velour, leather, etc.) may develop wear marks when child seats
are used. For optimum protection of your seat covers, we recommend using the BRITAX RÖMER Car Seat Protector, which is
available from our range of accessories.

Pull on the adjusting strap 09
until the harness lies flat and
is close against your child‘s

low as possible over your
child‘s hips.
19.
Guide the two buckle latches
21
together and engage them before
putting them into the harness
buckle 05 - this should make a
clicking noise.
A correctly adjusted headrest 03
ensures optimal protection for your
child in the safety seat:
The headrest 03 must be adjusted
so that the shoulder straps 07 are at
the same level as your child’s shoul-
ders or slightly above.
17.
Pull the adjusting ring of the head
rest 13 upwards
18.
Move the head rest 03 to the
correct shoulder strap height and
check that it is properly engaged
by lightly sliding the head rest 03
downwards.
For the safety of your child, before every journey in the car check that...
• the child safety seat is engaged on both sides with the ISOFIX locking arms
17
in the ISOFIX attachment points
01
and that both ISOFIX
indicators
