INFO

IMPORTANT

When tightening the harness, you must have the infant car seat on a flat surface. The child’s position could be very different if the infant car seat is angled which may cause the harness to be insufficiently tightened.
Make sure the belt is not twisted in any way.

Adjusting the handle

To adjust the handle (A), press both handle adjustment buttons (I) simultaneously and at the same time, push the handle in the direction of the intended movement. The handle has three different positions (A1, A2 and A3) with different purposes:
This position shall be used when carrying the child or when mounting the infant car seat in the vehicle.
This position shall be used when using the infant car seat as a cradle or when mounted in a compatible stroller.
This position blocks the cradle function and can be used when you want the cradle function disabled, for example when feeding your child.
WARNING: The handle is an important safety feature and must always be in position A1 when AXKID MODUKID INFANT 2 is used in a vehicle.
