Depending on the vehicle, you may be able to deactivate
the airbag yourself, or may need to contact your local
dealer/garage for assistance.
Step 3 – Check the seat
ʼ
s position in the vehicle
[MINI_029] Ensure that the front section of the
TAKATA MINI touches the backrest of the vehicle
seat, and that the TAKATA MINI is set at the right
angle. You can check this via the sticker af
fi
xed to the
side: if the red line is pointing straight up, the
TAKATA MINI is correctly positioned.
You may think that a slightly less upright position
would be more comfortable however, this 90-degree
angle has been proven to provide optimum safety. The
angle of your child, whatever the position of the inner
padding or shoulder straps, lies here within what is
known as the comfort zone.
Step 4 – Fasten the vehicle lap belt
To correctly secure the TAKATA MINI on the vehicle
seat, a suitable three-point seatbelt is necessary
(approved to ECE-R 16 or similar standards).
[MINI_030] Pull the vehicle ʼ s lap belt through the
blue lap belt guides on the sides of the seat.
CAUTION!
[MINI_031] Ensure that the vehicle seatbelt runs
correctly beneath the loops of the lap belt guides.
Secure the seatbelt, by
fi
rmly pressing the tongue into
the buckle, and check that the seatbelt has not become
twisted.
Step 5 – Adjust the carry handle
[MINI_032] Simultaneously push in the grey levers on
each side of the handle as far as they can go, and move
the carry handle forward into the vehicle position
(centre position).
