1. Beschreibung

The Isofix system corresponds with Isofix Size Class E. Tested according to ECE 44/04, XPS54.040 & XPS54.046. If you intend using the Isofix system then please check beforehand in your vehicle manual whether this size class is approved for your vehicle.

2. Rocking-seat function:

2.1 The shape of the infant carrier allows it to be rocked. To eliminate the rocking function fold the carrying handle over the head area until it locks in place. When the child is in the infant carrier the harness should be fastened at all times!

2.2 Diverse carrying frame positions.

3. Installing with Isofix

3.1 Insert the guides through the upholstery slot between the back rest and seat and on to the Isofix bracket. This is not necessary when such guides have already been installed, e.g. BMW. Ensure that the open side area faces upwards. In some vehicles, the isofix brackets are located behind the seat fabric and are not visible; in this situation please contact your vehicle manufacturer or dealer.

• The infant carrier is only suitable for use in approved vehicles fitted with automatic 3-point safety belts that conform with UN - ECE Regulation No. 16 or other comparable standards.
• The infant carrier must always be secured according to these installation instructions, even if the seat is not being used. A seat that is not secured can injure other passengers in the car in the event of an accident or emergency braking!

• The utilisation of this product as reclined cradle is not recommended for children that can sit by themselves (9 months approximately, until 9 kg).

• The belts must not be twisted, jammed or squeezed, and they must be taut.
  After an accident the child seat should be replaced.
• Ensure that luggage and other objects are adequately secured, particularly when they are on the rear window shelf, otherwise they could cause injuries in the event of a crash. Set a good example and strap yourself in. An adult that is not strapped in can be a danger to the child.
• WARNING: Never leave a child in a baby seat unattended!
• WARNING: It is dangerous to put this infant carrier on an elevated area!
  Always buckle in your child.
• Protect the child seat from direct exposure to the sun so that the child cannot be burnt by a hot cover, and to prevent the cover from fading.
• Never use the child seat without the cover! Never exchange the seat cover for one that has not been recommended by the manufacturer. This is because the cover forms an integral part of the system's safety function!
