Adjustment Options / Features
Please note:
The 5-point safety belt integrated in the seat is intended for the use in ECE group I (up to 18 kg / 39.7 lb) only. This re-
quires that the seat must be secured with the vehicle’s 3-point belt before.
RECARO Sport HERO Reha has successfully passed an overload test at Dekra (Dresden) on the basis of the require-
ments of ECE R 44/04. Thus, the RECARO Sport HERO Reha is approved for the use as “restraint system for special
needs (“S”)”.
For use in ECE group II-III (18 kg/39.7 Ib up to 36 kg / 79.4 Ibs):
During the course of this test it was verified that the 5-point belt for children with a body weight of over 18 kg (39.7 lbs)
can be used as an additional positioning belt. In this case, ALWAYS secure your child using the vehicle’s 3-point safety
belt and observe the notes on correct installation contained in the original RECARO Instructions for Installation and Use.
The 5-point positioning belt integrated into the child seat is NOT a safety-relevant item. In this case the child is re-
strained by the vehicle’s 3-point safety belt. The 5-point belt is only intended for use as a positioning belt to provide
additional support for children with a body weight of between 18 and 36 kg (39.7 and 79.4 lbs).
To enable your child to use the RECARO Sport HERO Reha for the longest possible time, the 5-point belt system, includ-
ing the guide rail, can be removed. When removing the 5-point belt system please observe the notes contained in the
original RECARO Instructions for Installation and Use. If it is also intended to use a 5-point positioning belt for larger
children, we recommend the use of our belt extension.

Adjusting the belt length:
Slightly lift the seat cover and release the fabric flap by opening the hook and loop. Now you can see the central belt
adjuster in the seat shell. To change the belt length, press the lever down and adjust the belt by either pulling the strap
coming out of the front of the seat (shortening) or by pulling out both shoulder belts (lengthening).
