• The seat should be only used placed opposite to the driving direction.
• DO NOT place the child seat in the seats fitted with an active frontal airbag, as it may be
dangerous. This does not apply to side airbags.
• In the case of installation of the car seat on the front seat of the car, turn off the airbag
(check the instruction manual of the vehicle manufacturer).
• It is recommended to use the seat in the back seats of the car only.
• Guidance on the suitability of the vehicle seat for use with a car seat can be found in the
instruction manual of the vehicle manufacturer.
• Suitable for installation only in the approved vehicles fitted with three-point safety belts
with retractor approved according to UN/ECE Regulation No. 16 or other equivalent
standards.
• Note that any straps attaching the child seat to the vehicle must be tight; the belts must fit
the child's body and the belt must not be twisted.
• The seat should be replaced if it has been subjected to violent stresses in an accident.
• The seat must not be subject to any modifications.
• The child safety seat should be protected from direct sunlight, otherwise heated parts can
burn your child.
• Never leave your child in the seat unattended.
• It should be noted that any bags and other items must be sufficiently secured, in particular
on the parcel shelf, as otherwise in the event of a collision this can lead to injury.
• The seat cannot be used without the cover.
• Do not use replacement covers other than those recommended by the manufacturer, since
it is an integral part of the safety seat.
• It is recommended to keep the car seat instruction manual for the entire period of its use.
• Do not use anchorages other than those described in the instruction manual and marked
in the child seat.
• All rigid items and plastic parts of the child seat must be located and installed in such a way
to avoid, under normal operating conditions of the vehicle, blocking by a sliding seat or
vehicle door.
• Regularly check the technical condition of the belts, paying special attention to the
fasteners/holders, seams and adjustment elements.
• Discontinue use of the car seat if its parts are damaged or loosened after an accident.
• In case of an emergency situation, it is important to quickly unfasten the seat belts. This
means that the belts release button is not fully secured; make sure your child knows that
s/he is not allowed to play with the buckle.
• Do not use the seat at home. It is not suitable for home use and it should only be used
when travelling by car.
• The back of the seat must rest flat against the back of the car seat. Please make sure that
the headrest dues not create an unwanted space between the car seat backrest and back
seat of the vehicle. Some car headrests constitute an obstacle to the installation of a car
seat and must therefore be disassembled first.
