IMPORTANT POINTS: To ensure baby’s back is evenly supported, do not put more than one nappy on the baby

HOW TO USE FOR INFANT POSITION (0-9 KG)
IMPORTANT STEPS RE HARNESS ADJUSTMENT AND USE
Step 1:
L
engthen the harness in excess of what is needed before placing the baby in the car seat. To lengthen the harness, push the
harness adjuster that is located at the front of the seat (see figure. 5) whilst grasping both shoulder harness straps and pulling
out till lengthened to the desired amount. Ensure shoulder straps are pulled equally on each side.
Step 2:
Place baby/child in car seat with legs either side of the crotch strap, place harness over the shoulders and hips and engage the
two buckle tongues (CLICK) into buckle. CHECK IT IS PROPERLY ENGAGED. Ensure child is placed centrally in the seat. If the
model has an adjustable headrest, adjust and lock into a position that gives maximum head protection.
Step 3:
Whilst pushing the harness adjuster (G) down to “deactivate it”
and pull harness adjuster strap (H) to take the slack out of the
harness until it is a firm but comfortable fit. Ensure buckle is
adjusted centrally in relation to the child. Adjust if necessary.
Step 4:
If upper anchorage strap has been loosened to allow easier
placing of the baby in the restraint, tighten the upper anchorage
strap so it has no slack in it. DO NOT TIGHTEN EXCESSIVELY.
To remove child from the restraint press the red harness buckle release
button which releases buckle tongues from the buckle. Move each
shoulder strap to the child’s side to allow easy access to the child.
Remove the child.

CORRECT SHOULDER HEIGHT FOR REARWARD FACING MODE
The correct height for the shoulder straps is very important
for the optimum performance of the restraint. The shoulder
straps must be positioned no lower than the top of the baby’s
shoulders (see figure 5A). The shoulder slots used in rearward
facing position is the lower and middle row of slots.
IMPORTANT: TO CHANGE THE SHOULDER SLOT HEIGHT REFER TO PAGE 6, STEPS 1 TO 5

Step 1:
Remove the restraint from the rearward facing mode.
Swing recline section to the rear of the base and ‘click’
into position (Refer to Figure 6).
Step 2:
Place the restraint in desired upright or reclined position,
with the back against the back of the vehicle seat,
directly in line with the anchorage point.
Step 3:
Fold the rear of seat base cover and foam to expose
the seating surface of the base. Pass the lap and sash
sections of the vehicle belt under the first hook (K1),
across the seat base under the second hook (K2) and
“click” the buckle tongue in the buckle. (Refer to Figure 7)
Important notes:
(1) The vehicle belt is now located
across the seat base. (2) The belt path is shown by the
yellow arrows in Figure 7.
Step 4:
Push down on the base of the restraint (with knee or hand)
whilst pulling the sash section of the vehicle belt firmly
up in direction of the yellow arrow in figure 8.This will
make the lap belt very tight across the seat base. Whilst
continuing to pull the sash section up (i.e maintaining
tightness of the lap section) attach the red belt clamp on
the sash section as close as possible above the buckle
tongue. (Refer to Figure 10 and instruction for installing
the red clamp below) Tighten sash section of belt across
the base. Place layer of foam and seat cover back into
position over the top of the vehicle belt.
NOTE: To install the red clamp, open it and clamp the
“sash section” of the vehicle seat belt by closing the barrel
section of the red belt clamp in the direction of arrow 1
in figure 10 and then locking with the toggle section by
pushing in the direction of arrow 2 in figure 10 when the
belt clamp is secured in place, the lap section is now
tightly holding your child restraint in place, independent
of the sash section. Always keep the red clamp in pocket
provided when not in use.
Step 5:
Attach the upper anchorage strap/clip to the anchor
fitting (point F). The anchor fitting must be secured to
the vehicle as per instructions on page 2. Adjust upper
anchorage strap (E) by pulling webbing through adjuster
(C). To lengthen, lift adjuster to release webbing and then
lengthen. Ensure upper anchorage strap is adjusted
firmly. (Refer to Figure 11).
