SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Please read these instructions carefully before using the seat and keep this guide in a safe place for future reference. If you do not comply with these instructions, the safety of your child could be compromised. Only install your group 2-3 booster seat on a forward facing seat that has a 3-point seat belt (1).
- The hard items and the items in plastic of the child restraint system must be located and installed so that when used normally, they do not get trapped under a movable seat or in the vehicle door.
- Make sure the straps to attach the restraint system to the vehicle are kept tight and adjust the straps that hold in the child. The straps must not be twisted.
- Make sure the sub-abdominal straps are run as low as possible, to keep the pelvis in good position.
- Replace the restraint system if it has been subjected to violent shocks in an accident.
- It is dangerous to change or add elements to the restraint system in any way without the authorisation of the competent authority, or not to carefully follow the instructions on installation provided by the manufacturer of the child restraint system.
- Keep the seat out of direct sunlight so that the child does not get burned.
- Do not leave the child unattended in a child restraint system.
- Make sure that luggage and other items that might harm the child in the seat in the event of a shock are correctly stowed away.
- Do not use the child restraint system without the cover.
- Do not replace the seat cover with one that has not been recommended by the manufac-turer, because it plays a direct role ensuring that the restraint system works effectively.
- If you have a doubt concerning the installation and correct usage of your seat, please con-tact the manufacturer of the child restraint system.
- Install your child restraint system on seats categorised as “Universal” in your car manual.
- Do not use weight-bearing contact points other than those described in the instructions and indicated on the restraint system.
- Always use the back seat if possible even if the Highway Code stipulates that using the front seat is allowed.

Assembling the booster seat
(3) (4) (5) (6) In-car installation
Gr. 2-3, from 15 to 36 kg (from approximately 3 to 12 years) Ensure that the
adjustable head support has been set to the size of your child before starting
to install it in your vehicle. Your car seat is group 2 and 3 approved and has
a back support. Never remove the back of your car seat. Without the back, your
child will not be pro-tected laterally.
Adjusting the head support: the adjustable head support is designed to be used as your child grows up providing maximum lateral protection. The belt guides of the head support must be placed as close to your child’s shoulders as possible (7) (8).
Place the car seat against the back seat of your vehicle (9). Seat your child
on the car seat. The diagonal end of the belt goes into the strap guide of the
head support and under the opposite armrest. The lap end of the safety belt
goes under the armrests (10) Fasten the safety belt. Ensure that the belt is
tight enough and not twisted. Cup holder (as an option in some models)
Slide the cup holder of the car seat into the guides on each side of the seat
(11).
WARNING: do not place heavy objects that might fly out of the cup holder in the event of an impact.

WARNING
- This car seat is a “Universal” child restraint system. It has been approved in accordance with regulation N°44/04, and is suitable for general use in vehicles and is compatible with the majority (some exceptions) of vehicle seats.
- It is more likely that the seat is perfectly compatible if the vehicle manufacturer states that its vehicles are suitable for taking “Universal” child restraint systems.
- This restraint system is classified as “Universal” in accordance with the strictest approval criteria, whereas earlier models do not correspond to these new provisions.
- It can only be adapted to vehicles with 3-point safety belts that are either fixed or have a roller mechanism and that have been approved compliant with the UN/ECE N° 16 or other equivalent standards.
- If in doubt, contact the manufacturer or retailer of the restraint system.
