in THE VEHiCLE
Your car seat is fitted with an adjusta-
ble headrest that has been designed
to support your child throughout
growth by providing maximum lateral
protection.
IMPORTANT: Correct attachment to
the Isofix anchor points is essential
for the safety of your child. This car
seat must only be installed with a
3-point safety belt (2). Never install
the car seat with a 2-point safety
belt (3)! Never use a different in-
stallation method than the one de-
scribed here!
Raise the adjustable headrest to its
highest position. Extend the EASY-
FIX connectors from the car seat as
far as possible (4). Position the car
seat on the rear seat of the vehicle
bringing the EASYFIX connectors
in line with the seat's ISOFIX an-
chor points (5). Click the EASYFIX
connectors into the anchor points;
the indicators on each connector
should turn from red to green (6).
Ensure that the vehicle seat belt
buckle remains accessible and that
it has not been placed under the
car seat. Release the safety catch
of the EASYFIX system (7). With the
safety catch released, push the car
seat by exerting equal pressure on
the backrest until the rear of the
car seat is pressed firmly against
the vehicle seat and then feed the
diagonal strap of the belt through
the headrest guide (8). Sit your child
in the car seat. The lifting armrests
make it easier for you to seat the
child and put on the harness. Make
sure that the child's back is fully in
contact with the back of the car seat.
Pull and fasten the vehicle seat belt.
Pass the diagonal strap of the belt
under the armrest opposite the belt
10
guide used. The waist strap of the
belt passes under both armrests (9).
Lower the adjustable headrest and
adjust it to the height of your child
(10). It should be positioned so that
it surrounds your child's head, pro-
viding maximum lateral protection,
whilst guiding the diagonal belt over
the child's shoulder so that there is
no contact with the child's neck (11)
(12). Tighten the vehicle seat belt.
Ensure that the belt is proper-
ly tightened, that it is not twisted
and that it is not at the level of your
child's neck.
To remove your child from the car
seat, simply unbuckle the seatbelt
and place it at the side of the car
seat. The belt will remain suspended
from the headrest belt guide.
IMPORTANT: Before each journey,
check that the armrests have been
lowered. Secure your car seat with
the vehicle seat belt at all times,
even when your child is not in the
car seat. An unsecured car seat
can cause injuries in the event of a
collision.
REMOVING THE CAR SEAT
Step 1: Remove the diagonal strap of
the seatbelt from the belt guide of the
adjustable headrest (13).
Step 2: Pull the car seat using the red
handle on the EASYFIX base (14). On
either side of the seat, release the
EASYFIX connectors from their an-
chor points by pulling the release but-
tons towards you. The indicators will
turn from green to red (15) (16). The
car seat can now be removed (17).
