• Spot clean only using a soft sponge with diluted detergent or water. Do not dry clean. Do not tumble dry. Do not iron.
• The infant cushion and shoulder pad straps are removable and can be sponge cleaned using a neutral detergent and warm water. Do not dry clean. Do not tumble dry. Do not iron. Dry in shade and not in the sun.
• It is important to only use the original upholstery as this is an essential part of the functionality.
• Wipe metals and plastic parts with a mild detergent and lukewarm water.
• DO NOT do not use chemical cleaners or bleaches (ammonia, petrol, solvents etc.) under any circumstances.

Product Care

• All important parts of the car seat should be checked regularly to make sure they are not damaged.
• All mechanical components must function properly.
• It is absolutely essential to ensure that the car seat is not stuck between hard objects such as vehicle doors, seat rails etc. as this could cause damage.
• This type of product requires careful and regular maintenance by the user.
• Protect the product from atmospheric agents, water, rain, snow. If necessary, immediately dry all the metal parts in order to avoid the formation of rust.
• DO NOT store the product if it is wet. DO NOT leave in humid environments. Mold is formed when a product is left in humid environments without air circulation that can dry the surface.

What to do after an accident

WARNING:  An accident can cause damage to the car seat that is not clearly visible.

The vehicle seat belts should also be replaced. Although they may look undamaged, they may not protect your child as well as they should. If in doubt, contact your car dealer or manufacturer.

Gradual wear of plastic, for example caused by exposure to sunlight (UV), can cause a slight deterioration of product properties. Since very high- temperature fluctuations and other unpredictable stresses are common in vehicles, the following points must be observed:

• If the vehicle is directly exposed to strong sunlight for long periods, the child car seat must be removed from the vehicle or covered with a light cloth.
• Regularly check all plastic and metal parts of the seat for any damage or changes in shape or color. If you notice a change in the seat, it must be disposed of or checked and replaced by the manufacturer if necessary.
• Fabric variations, especially fading, are normal with use in a vehicle and do not affect the functionality of the seat.

Disposal

To protect the environment we ask the user to separate and dispose of the waste arising at the beginning (packaging) and at the end (parts of the product) of the life of the infant carrier. Waste disposal is organized differently according to local authorities. To ensure that the infant carrier is disposed of in accordance with regulations, contact your local waste disposal agency or local authority. Always observe the waste disposal regulations of your country.

Due to variation in style and design the illustrations used in this instruction manual are generic. Variation in design may occur in the images shown.
