stalling the product. The product must not be used by
anybody who has not read these instructions.
•
Keep this manual for future reference.
•
WARNING! According to car accident statistics, the
rear seats of a car are generally safer than the front
seat: it is therefore recommended to fi t the child
car seat into the rear seats of the car. In particular,
the central rear seat is the safest, when fi tted with a
3-point safety strap.
•
It is recommended to ensure that all passengers
know how to release the child from the car seat in the
case of an emergency.
•
If the child car seat is fi tted in the front seat of the
car with the front airbag installed, in order to ensu-
re maximum safety, it is recommended to push the
seat back as much as possible, bearing in mind the
comfort of the passenger sitting in the seat directly
behind it.
•
Never use this child car seat fi tted into car seats fa-
cing sideways or facing rearwards.
•
Only fi t the child car seat onto seats which are fa-
stened to the car chassis and facing forwards. Make
sure that all folding or rotating car seats are always
fi rmly fastened in place, otherwise they could be
dangerous.
•
Pay close attention on how to fi t the child seat into
the vehicle, to prevent a loose seat or car door from
interfering with it.
•
Never fi t the child car seat to a seat that is only equip-
ped with an abdominal/lap safety belt with 2-points.
•
No child car seat can guarantee the total safety of
your child in the event of an accident, but the use
of this product reduces the risk of serious injuries or
death.
•
The risk of serious injuries to the child increases, not
only in the case of accidents, but also in other circum-
stances (i.e.: sudden braking etc.), if these instructions
are not followed carefully: always check that the child
car seat is fi tted correctly onto the vehicle seat.
•
If the child car seat is damaged, deformed or worn
out, it must be replaced, as its original safety features
may have been compromised.
•
This product must not be modifi ed in any way, unless
the modifi cation is approved by the manufacturer.
•
Do not install accessories, spare parts, or any compo-
nent not supplied by the manufacturer.
•
Never leave your child unattended in the car seat for
any reason.
•
Never place anything except an approved accessory
between the vehicle seat and the child car seat or
between the child car seat and the child: in the event
of an accident, the child car seat may not operate
correctly.
•
If the vehicle has been left in the sun, check that the
different parts of the child car seat are not too hot

before seating the child in it: in such an event, let the
child car seat cool down fi rst before placing the child
into it, in order to avoid burns.
•
After an accident, even a slight one, the child seat
could have been damaged, even if it not visible to the
naked eye. it therefore must be replaced.
•
Never use second-hand child car seats: they may
have suffered structural damage which is not visible
to the naked eye but however compromise the safety
of the product.
•
ARTSANA declines all responsibility for the incorrect
use of this product.
•
The seat fabric must only be replaced with another
approved by the manufacturer as it constitutes an
integral part of the child car seat. To ensure the safety
of the child car seat, never use it without its fabric
cover.
•
Check that the harness straps are not twisted and
try to prevent them, or any other part of the car
seat from getting trapped in the car door or rubbing
against sharp objects.
•
The child car seat must be replaced should the har-
ness be cut or frayed.
•
When the child car seat is not in use inside the vehicle,
it should be left secured to the car's seat, or stowed in
the car's boot. An unsecured child car seat may be a
source of danger for the passengers in the event of an
accident or sudden braking.
•
Do not transport loose or unsecured objects or bag-
gage on the back shelf of the vehicle: in the event, of
an accident or sudden braking, they may injure the
passengers.
•
Check that the car seat headrest does not interfere
with the child seat headrest: do not push it forwards.
If this is the case, remove the headrest from the car
seat on which the child seat is fi tted, without resting
it on the luggage rack.
•
Ensure that all the car passengers fasten their seat
belt, for their own safety and because, during the
journey, they may injure the child in the event of an
accident or sudden braking of the car.
•
0n long journeys make frequent stops. Children tire
easily. Never take your child out of the child seat
whilst the car is moving for any reason. If your child
needs attention, fi nd a safe place and pull over.
