WARNING NOTES:
[MIDI_004] Never leave your child unattended in the
vehicle.
[MIDI_005] Always seat your child in the TAKATA
MIDI before the start of your journey – never during
travel. Never remove your child from the seat while
the vehicle is in motion.
[MI MIDI_007] Check that the safety straps
have not become twisted, and that they lie snug to the
child
ʼ
s shoulders and lap, when fastening your child
into the TAKATA MIDI.
Pull the lap belt down as far as possible, so that the lap
area of your child is protected. If the lap belt runs
across your child’s stomach, there is a risk of internal
injuries in the event of an accident.
[MIDI_008] Check that the top of your child’s head is
lower than the top edge of the headrest. If the headrest
is too low, there is a greater risk of injury in the case
of an accident. As soon as the top of your child
ʼ
s head
reaches or exceeds the top edge of the seat, when the
inner padding is at its highest point, you should switch
to the TAKATA MAXI child car seat.
[MIDI_041] Always ensure that the AIRPADS are
positioned correctly in the inner pockets of the
adjustable inner padding. Failure to observe this notice
may seriously risk your child’s safety in the event of
an accident.
[MIDI_009] Secure your TAKATA MIDI in place
whenever it is in the vehicle, regardless of whether
a child is using it. This prevents the seat from
fl
ying
forwards in the event of an accident or when braking
sharply.
[MIDI_010] Take care not to damage the vehicle
ʼ
s
seatbelts, or the straps of the TAKATA MIDI, with
knives or other sharp objects. The TAKATA MIDI
cannot properly protect children from injury if the straps
have been cut or in some way damaged.
[MIDI_011] Using the TAKATA MIDI in any way
other than described in these instructions can cause
serious injury. Do not remove any components or
replace them with parts that have not been approved
by TAKATA AG.
[MIDI_012] After an accident, replace the TAKATA
MIDI with a new seat. Accidents can cause damage
to the seat that may not be visible to the naked eye.
Failure to observe this notice may seriously risk your
child’s safety in the event of an accident.
[MIDI_013] The TAKATA MIDI can heat up when
placed in direct sunlight. To prevent burns, ensure that
an adult checks all plastic and metal parts of the seat
before use.
[MIDI_014] Position the TAKATA MIDI so that static
parts (plastic elements, etc.) do not get stuck in vehicle
doors during normal use of the vehicle.
