TIONS TO ENSURE THE CHILD CAR SEAT IS
FITTED CORRECTLY
WARNING! To ensure your child’s safety, after
fitting the child car seat ALWAYS check that:
- The vehicle safety belt is not twisted at any
point.
- The safety belt is tightened correctly in all
its parts.
- At the end of the operations described abo-
ve, the child car seat must be tightly fitted
to the car seat. If the child car seat is not
tightly and safely fitted to the car seat, re-
peat the installation.
SEATING THE CHILD IN THE CHILD CAR
SEAT
- Before sitting your child in the child car
seat, press the harness adjustment button
and, at the same time, hold the two chi-
ld car seat harnesses under the shoulder
straps, and pull them in your direction to
slacken them (diagram 37).
- Unfasten the buckle of the child car seat
harnesses by pressing the red button (dia-
gram 38), and pull the harnesses in an
outward direction. Now the child can be
placed in the child car seat (diag. 39).
WARNING! Always check that the child is
sitting with its back correctly placed again-
st the backrest of the child car seat (diag.
40).
- Position the crotch strap correctly, take the
harnesses, overlap the two buckle straps
(diag. 41a - 41b) and push them together
firmly inside the buckle slot, until a “click”
is heard (diag. 42).
To ensure maximum safety, the two buckle
straps have been designed so as to prevent the
fastening of a single strap.
ADJUSTING THE PADDED HEADREST AND
HARNESSES
The height of the headrest and restraint har-
nesses can be simultaneously adjusted to 6
positions by pressing the button located at
the rear.
WARNING! To adjust them correctly, the
headrest must be fitted so as to allow that the
harnesses come out from the backrest at the
height of the child’s shoulders (diag. 43).
To adjust the height, press the adjustment
button (M), located at the rear of the back-
rest (diag. 44) and, at the same time, slide the
headrest until the desired position is reached
(diag. 45). Release the button and ease the
headrest until a click is heard, indicating that
it is locked correctly into position.
To tighten the restraint harnesses of the child
car seat, pull the adjustment strap of the re-
straint harnesses (diag. 46), until they are cor-
rectly fitted to the child’s body.
After tightening the restraint harnesses, hold
the shoulder straps and pull them in a down-
ward direction to adjust the harnesses to the
child’s body.
CAUTION! Do not over-tighten the harnesses.
If you can insert one finger between the har-
ness and your child’s shoulders, it means that
they are tightened correctly
WARNING! Ensure that the harnesses are not
twisted, especially on your child’s abdomen.
ADJUSTING THE INCLINATION OF THE CHI-
LD CAR SEAT
The child car seat can be reclined to 5 posi-
tions.
To adjust the inclination of the child car seat,
pull the lever located under the seat (Q) in
your direction (diag. 47).
WARNING! After adjusting the child car seat
to the desired position, first release the lever,
and then continue to move the seat until a
click is heard, indicating that the lever is
locked correctly.
WARNING! After adjusting the child car seat
to the desired position, always check that
the cars safety belts are tightened correctly
around the child car seat.
WARNING! During the adjustment operations,
ensure that no mobile parts come into contact
with the child or other children in the car.
