INTRODUCTION
To be used only in a rearward-facing position until the infant’s shoulders either reach the lower shoulder height marker (approximately 12 months of age) or reach the middle height marker (approximately 2 to 3 years of age). Then to be used in a forward-facing position until the child’s shoulders reach the upper shoulder height marker (approximately 4 years of age). Continue to use this child restraint until the child reaches this limit. Do not use forward facing until child’s shoulders are above the lower shoulder height marker. Infants are at risk of serious injury if they face forward too early. Children are at risk of serious injury if they move to booster seats too early. Children who have outgrown this restraint are safest in a larger child restraint with an in-built harness or a booster seat until their shoulders reach the upper shoulder height marker of the restraint.

INTRODUCTION
These instructions cover various configurations of this model. To determine if the feature is available on your child restraint refer to packaging. ISOFIX compatible connection is not available on all models. No child restraint can guarantee absolute protection from injury in every crash. However, to ensure that your child gets all the protection designed into the restraint PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY and use only Babylove recommended parts and accessories. The child should not sit in this restraint in the forward facing mode until their neck muscles are able to support their head. However Babylove recommends that you keep your child in a rearward facing restraint for as long as possible or until the appropriate shoulder height marker is reached. Carefully read all the instructions for installation in this book. If in doubt about the method of installation, consult Babylove or agent, or a child restraint fitter or, in New Zealand, to consult the agent for the vehicle. To be used with a lap-sash or lap only seatbelt or ISOFIX low anchorages (if fitted) in the back of most cars with forward facing seats. Regional Road Rules may prohibit the use of this restraint in the front seat of the car until the child is 4 years of age. Check your Regional Rules for exemptions. Always store the instruction book in the pocket provided on the side of the cover.
WHAT ARE ISOFIX LOW ANCHORAGES IN A VEHICLE?
If you purchased a model which is ISOFIX Compatible there will be straps fitted to each side of the lower part of the seat and stored at the upper side of the seat. Refer to page 26. ISOFIX low anchorages are fixed, standardised anchoring points for securely installing an ISOFIX compatible child restraint in a vehicle with ISOFIX low anchorages. They are an alternative method of installing the child restraint without using car’s seatbelt. It has now become an international standard for vehicles. This anchoring technology minimises installation mistakes by optimising the protective effect of the connection between vehicle and ISOFIX compatible child restraint.

INSTALLATION METHOD
SEATBELT OR ISOFIX COMPATIBLE
If you have purchased a ISOFIX compatible restraint with ISOFLEX straps, it may be connected by either seatbelt and top tether strap or ISOFLEX Connectors and top tether strap. The ISOFLEX connectors will need to be deployed from their storage location prior to adjusting the seat recline angle to rearward facing mode. If not fitted with ISOFIX compatible straps this seat is suitable for fitting with seatbelt and top tether strap. The restraint top tether must always be connected and adjusted. Consult the car owner’s handbook for location of top tether anchorage points. If there is no child restraint anchor fitting or child restraint anchor point refer to pages 83 to 86 for the installation of the anchor fitting as well as the use of extension straps. An anchor fitting is required to attach the top tether strap to fully install the restraint to the vehicle. Select a seating position with a child restraint anchor fitting directly behind if possible.

SUITABLE FOR USE REARWARD-FACING

REARWARD FACING

Continue to use this child restraint in the rear facing mode until the child’s shoulders reach the limit of the lower or middle shoulder height marker before turning the seat to face forward. A younger child’s neck muscles may be unable to support their head thus the child should remain rear facing until the neck muscles can hold the head steady.

To ensure that the space is sufficient the purchaser should check the measurement between the seat back of the rear seat and all front seats in the car in which the child restraint is intended to be used. The length may be longer when the headrest is raised in rear facing mode.

435mm

Regional Road Rules may prohibit the use of this restraint in the front seat until the child is 4 years of age. Check your Regional Road Rules for exemptions.

ANGULAR ADJUSTMENT OF RESTRAINT
Some vehicle seats have more rearward slope than others. If the angle of the seat causes the baby to be too upright for comfort, the angle may be altered by placing a firm packing between the seat and the underside of the base. Packing can be a firmly rolled up towel. If the car’s seat is flat then some packing may be required at the front edge of the base to achieve the recline angle. Do not remove all of the installation angle by over packing. Always leave an angle of approximately 10°- 15°.

HOW TO SET-UP
REARWARD FACING

INSTALLATION AND USE OF RESTRAINT
Correct fitment of the harness is very important as it restrains the baby in the seat. The headrest must be in the correct position, the harness must fit firmly around the upper torso of the baby and be positioned so as to leave the baby’s arms and legs free.
For babies in rear facing mode the headrest must be in the position where the top of the shoulder strap slots are nearest to the child’s shoulders, but not lower than the child’s shoulders. Instructions for adjusting the headrest are on page 42. If your baby has reached the lower shoulder height marker then the restraint may be converted to forward facing (refer to Forward Facing section from page 51) mode. However it is preferable to remain rear facing for longer, Forward facing must be used when the child’s shoulders reach the middle shoulder height marker.

HOW TO USE THE HEADREST
First remove both harness straps (refer to page 43), then rotate lever down to release headrest clamp (A). Slide the headrest up or down to suit the height of your child (from page 65 for toddler use). In rearward facing mode, move the headrest so that the bottom slots in the headrest line up with the top of the child’s shoulders. If the headrest slots do not align to a shell slot, move the headrest up to the next set of slots. Do not move headrest downwards. Rotate the lever upward to lock the headrest clamp (B). Refit both harness straps, ensuring that there are no twists and that each strap is in the correct and matching slots in both the seat shell and headrest (refer to page 42).

ADJUSTING SHOULDER HARNESS STRAPS HEIGHT
Always adjust the harness slot position as the child grows. If your child has reached the middle shoulder height marker then the restraint must be converted to Forward Facing mode (refer to Forward Facing section starting on page 57).

REARWARD FACING

Shoulder straps must be threaded directly through appropriate shoulder strap slots then over the top of bar at rear of restraint. Harness straps must never be routed through headrest and shell slots at similar heights.

The shoulder straps must be in the slots which are nearest to the child’s shoulders, but not lower than the child’s shoulders.

CAUTION: A LOOSE HARNESS IS DANGEROUS.
Do not harness an infant wrapped in a blanket or swaddled as this increases the risk of ejection and injury or death in a crash. The harness needs to fit firmly to the baby, any blanket or other covering may only be placed over the harness after the harness is adjusted. Arms and legs must be free and not bound or wrapped together. The legs must sit on each side of the crotch strap. Always adjust the height of the headrest and shoulder straps as the child grows.
IMPORTANT:
The insert pad is designed to provide extra support and comfort and must be used for smaller children. Discontinue use when Baby Insert Pad, creates discomfort or the child’s shoulders reach the lower shoulder height marker.

ADJUSTING SHOULDER HARNESS STRAPS HEIGHT FORWARD FACING

Correct fitment of the harness is very important as it restrains the

child in the restraint. The headrest must be in the correct position

and the harness must fit firmly around upper torso of the child and

be positioned so as to leave the child’s arms and legs free.

For forward facing mode the shoulder strap slots need to be

nearest to the child’s shoulders, but not lower than 25mm below

the child’s shoulders. Always adjust the harness slot position as the

child grows. Adjust the harness to the desired position, see page 66. Remove

25mm

the accessories (if fitted) when adjusting the straps. If your child has

reached the upper shoulder height marker then refer to page 21 for

next type of restraint

The shoulder straps must be in the slots

which are nearest to the child’s shoulders,

but not more than 25mm below the child’s

shoulders.

Straps ALWAYS over bar

Straps NEVER under bar

Shoulder straps must be threaded directly through appropriate shoulder strap slots then over the top of bar at rear of restraint. Harness straps must never be routed through headrest and shell slots at similar heights.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

BUCKLE OPERATION
To ensure the buckle remains operational the inside of the buckle must be kept free of liquids, sand, dirt, fluff, food or similar substances. If the buckle is not operating or does not click when second tongue is inserted then the buckle needs to be washed or replaced. Contact our Customer Service Department for assistance.
TO CLEAN HARNESS BUCKLE:
If sticky liquids such as baby formula, fruit juice, etc. get inside your harness buckle, it may become sluggish. An indication of a sluggish harness buckle is that you cannot hear a click when engaging the harness tongues. To restore the harness buckle to good working order it needs to be cleaned as follows:
A. Remove the harness buckle from the restraint: from the underside of the restraint pull each crotch 3-bar slide, turn 3-bar slide on its side and push through each slot to remove.
B. Place the harness buckle under warm (max. 40 degrees Celsius) running water as shown. Let the water run through the mouth of the buckle for five minutes.
C. Engage and disengage the harness tongues and buckles several times until a strong audible click is heard.
D. If you still cannot hear a strong audible click after engaging the second harness tongue, then repeat cleaning several times. If the harness buckle cannot be returned to its original working condition then contact Babylove.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
COVER (STYLE MAY VARY)
The restraint has a flame retardant cover which is removable for cleaning. Cleaning instructions are on the care label attached to the cover. If fluffy cover is fitted then washing cover prior to use will remove excess fluff. Drying the insert pad will take additional time as the impact foam will absorb moisture. Before washing re-engage the hook and loop on the cover and insert pad to prevent the ‘hook’ damaging the fabric. The cover has been designed to protect your child when seated in the restraint. Care should be taken if children either eat or drink while in the restraint as some food or drink products may cause damage or marking to the cover. Wash or clean immediately. Do not pull sticky items from covers as the cover may be damaged – soak in water and gently remove.

INSTALLATION OF CAR ANCHOR FITTING
Consult the vehicle owner’s handbook for location of anchorage fittings or anchorage points and the possible use of spacers. Some vehicles may have an anchor fitting fitted by the vehicle manufacturer. If anchorage points cannot be found refer to car manufacturer or local child restraint fitting station or traffic authority for optimum position of anchorage point and the use of spacers.
TOP TETHER STRAP IMPORTANT:
THE ATTACHMENT CLIP COVER MUST ALWAYS BE USED AS IT PREVENTS THE RISK OF INCORRECT FITMENT OF THE ATTACHMENT CLIP TO THE UPPER ANCHORAGE POINT. ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE ATTACHMENT CLIP IS CORRECTLY ENGAGED TO THE UPPER ANCHORAGE POINT AND NOT HOOKED OR FITTED TO ANY OTHER OBJECT BEFORE EACH USE OF THE RESTRAINT. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT IN VEHICLES SUCH AS STATION WAGONS, VANS, HATCH BACKS OR VEHICLES WITHOUT A FIXED PARCEL SHELF, SINCE THE ANCHOR POINT IS USUALLY NOT VISIBLE.
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTE: In some vehicles the upper anchorage point in the rear vertical panel can only be installed in one way. Please refer to vehicle owner’s handbook or a child restraint fitting station for correct method.

TRAVELLING TIPS
SAFETY
Never hold a baby in arms when riding in a motor vehicle. In this position the baby could be thrown against the dashboard, windscreen or other occupant and suffer serious injury or death. When riding in a motor vehicle never nurse a baby and use the same seat belt for both of you. In this position the baby or child could be crushed. Never breast feed a baby while car is in motion. Children must be secured in appropriate restraints at all times when the car is in motion. Children travelling unrestrained or standing up in the car are in danger of serious injury or death. Traffic regulations in all states require children to be secured in child restraints or adult seat belts where available. Plan your trip with frequent comfort stops to reduce stress on babies, young children and driver. Keep the car well ventilated to reduce heat stress. Car windows should be kept open to maintain a good flow of fresh air. Never leave babies or toddlers in a stationary car because of the risk of heat exhaustion. Ensure babies and toddlers are adequately shaded from direct sunlight through side or rear windows. Check the car is ventilated by use opening windows or using the car’s ventilation system taking in external air. Recirculation setting is not suitable for providing ventilation. Be on guard against carbon monoxide poisoning which can occur through only a slight leak in the exhaust system while travelling in a closed car. Securely stow all heavy objects, feeding bottles, etc. that could become missiles during an accident and cause injury to any occupant.
CLOTHING/BATHING
Since it is often warmer in the car, dress the baby in light clothing. Do not harness an infant wrapped in a blanket or swaddled. Any blanket or wrap must only be placed over the harness and infant.
87

IN CASE OF CRASH
If your restraint has been involved in a severe crash, you should destroy the restraint even if no damage is visible. Some insurance companies offer vehicle insurance which covers or partially covers the replacement of your child restraint. Contact your insurance company for further details. Your insurance company may require you to keep the child restraint for assessment, but do not use the child restraint after a severe crash.
