Secure product in the vehicle

Risk of injury if installed incorrectly
If the product is installed or used other than as described in the operating instructions, serious or even fatal injuries may result.

Never secure the child seat with a 2-point seat belt.
Only use on a vehicle seat facing or against the direction of travel.
Note and follow the instructions in the vehicle handbook.

Risk of injury from front airbag
Airbags are designed to protect adults. If the child seat is too close to the front airbag, slight or serious injuries can arise.

If the child seat is secured on the passenger seat, slide the passenger seat backwards.
If the child seat is secured on the second or third row of seats, slide the corresponding front seat forwards.
Note and follow the instructions in the vehicle handbook.

Risk of injury due to missing contact surface
It is necessary for the backrest of the child seat to be flat to the vehicle seat. If the headrest of the vehicle seat prevents this, then carry out the following steps.

Check whether the vehicle handbook allows the headrest to be removed.
If this is allowed, then remove the headrest according to the vehicle handbook. Immediately reattach the headrest as soon as the child seat is no longer used on the vehicle seat.
If this is prohibited, select a different vehicle seat.

How to avoid damaging the vehicle

The vehicle’s sensitive seat covers may be damaged.
Use Porsche Tequipment vehicle seat protectors. These are available separately.

Risk of injury due to over-long belt lock
The position of the belt lock affects the protective function of the child seat.

Select a different vehicle seat if the seat belt lock is in or in front of the dark-green belt guide.
If in doubt, contact your retailer.

Use in the vehicle

Risk of injury during use
The temperature in a vehicle can rise to dangerous levels quickly. In addition, it is dangerous to step out of the vehicle from the side facing the street.

Never leave a child unsupervised in the vehicle.
Only allow the child to board and disembark on the footpath-side.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in order to give your child chance to move and play.

Risk of injury from slack straps
Slack straps are areas of the seat belt that lie loosely against the child’s body. Slack straps have a negative impact on the protective function.

Check straps are tight and not twisted.
Avoid thick clothing under the belt.

Risk of injury from unsecured objects
In the case of an emergency stop or accident, unsecured objects or people may cause injury to other occupants in the vehicle.

Never secure your child by holding them tightly on your lap.

Secure all heavy or sharp-edged objects in the vehicle (e.g. on the parcel shelf).
Do not place objects in the foot well.
Ensure that everyone in the vehicle has their seatbelts fastened.
Ensure that the product is always secured when it is in the vehicle, even if no child is being transported.

Risk of injury from unsecured child

Stop safely as soon as this is possible.
Ensure that the child seat is correctly fastened.
Ensure that your child is buckled up correctly.
