Frequently Asked Questions - Baboo CONCORD

How to install the Baboo seat in the car?

Place the handle in position A (auto). Install the seat rear-facing. For mounting A, pass the lap belt through the blue guides on the side of the seat, then the diagonal belt into the blue clamp at the back of the seat backrest. For mounting B, open the blue clamp, pass the diagonal belt around the backrest, then the lap belt through the guides. Ensure the belt is tight and the seat touches the vehicle's backrest.

How to adjust the harness?

The straps must pass through the openings at the child's shoulder height. To loosen the harness, press the release button (11) located on the front edge of the seat and pull the straps. To tighten, pull the central adjustment strap (10). The harness must be tight without twisting.

How to wash the cover?

The cover can be removed and machine washed at 30°C with a delicate cycle. Refer to the washing label. To remove it, unhook it around the perimeter and at the adjustment button (11), then carefully pull the straps through the openings. Put it back in reverse order.

Can I use the Baboo seat on a seat equipped with an airbag?

No, never use the Baboo seat on a seat equipped with an airbag. This could cause serious injuries to the child. Install it only on a seat with a 3-point safety belt.

Up to what age or weight can I use the Baboo seat?

The seat is suitable for children from birth up to 18 months and weighing less than 13 kg. Stop using it as soon as the child's head reaches the top edge of the seat.

What to do in case of an accident?

After an accident, the seat must be completely replaced or sent to the manufacturer with an accident report for inspection. Even without visible damage, safety may be compromised.

What accessories are available for the Baboo?

CONCORD original accessories include: the MINI/MINI-PLUS reducer, the Shady 2 sunshade (adjustable in 2 positions) and the Sloomy cocoon. Only manufacturer accessories are recommended.

Press the buttons (2) on each side of the handle simultaneously. You can then rotate the handle forward or backward to position it in A (auto), B (manual transport), C (rocking cradle), or D (seat). The buttons pop out automatically in B, C and D.

Is the Baboo seat compatible with all vehicles?

It is a universal equipment according to ECE 44, but it may not be suitable for all seat types. Check the vehicle manual and ensure the safety belt is approved according to ECE R16 rule or comparable standards. If in doubt, contact the manufacturer.

How to remove the polystyrene for older babies?

When the child weighs approximately 9 kg, the polystyrene around the pelvis can be removed. Open the harness, remove the padded shoulder pads and pull the back of the cover forward. Remove the double shell by pulling it upward, then replace the cover and pads.

Congratulations on the arrival of your new baby.

We hope you enjoy every moment of such a special time. To protect and safeguard your baby on journeys you have chosen our CONCORD Baboo seat, a product manufactured to a strict regime of quality controls.

But the seat's optimum safety features can only be exploited if it is properly used, so please adhere to the instructions on how to correctly install and use it.

Baboo can be used on any seat in the car fitted with a three point belt but not fitted with an airbag. Based on accident statistics, we recommend the seat behind the front passenger seat.

Baboo is ECE 44 approved and is suitable for babies up to approx. 18 months old (up to 13 kg body weight).

Installing Baboo in the car

Always install Baboo in a rear facing position (Fig. 2).

There are two installation options, option 2 is always to be recommended for vehicles with shorter seat-belts.

Option A: Pull the horizontal car seat belt through the horizontal belt guides (7) marked blue and fasten (Fig. 2a+b). Open diagonal seat belt clamp (6) at back of Baboo (Fig. 4).

Tighten horizontal seat belt and place diagonal seat belt around back of Baboo (Fig. 2).

Tighten diagonal seat belt and put into blue belt clamp (6) (Fig. 4). The front edge of Baboo and the edge of the handle should touch the seat back (Fig. 2). Close seat belt clamp (Fig. 4).

GB

Option B: Open diagonal seat belt clamp (6) on back of Baboo (Fig. 4).

Pull out diagonal seat belt all the way, placing it around the back of Baboo. Now pull horizontal seat belt through blue horizontal guides (7), finishing by fastening seat belt (Fig. 3).

Tighten horizontal seat belt. Tighten diagonal seat belt and put into blue belt clip (6) (Fig. 4). The front edge of Baboo and the edge of the handle should touch the seat back (Fig. 3). Close seat belt clamp (Fig. 4).

Please make sure that the seat belt is tight and flush, not twisted. Figures 2b and 3b show the correct position of the seat belt, the diagonal seat belt should always be passed beneath the carry hand cover (5) on the lock side.

The diagonal and horizontal elements of the car seat belt must not be mixed up.

Securing your baby in Baboo

Children should never be left unattended in Baboo.

Open harness lock (8) by pressing the red button (Fig. A).

Carefully place the baby in the seat and arrange comfortably.

For smaller babies we recommend using the seat size reducer,

available as an accessory.

Place harness (9) over baby's shoulders and insert both elements into lock (8), making a distinct click (Fig. A).

Shorten the harness by pulling the adjuster strap (10). The harness should firmly hug the child's body (Fig. B).

The harness must not be twisted.

The seat must no longer be used when the top of the baby's head reaches the top edge of the seat shell.

Adjusting the harness

The harness has three settings for adjusting to the body size of the baby. The harness should come out of the shell's openings (15) at approx. height of baby's shoulders (Fig. C + D). In order to adjust the harness the straps are simply inserted through the appropriate holes in the shell (Fig. D). In the case of seats fitted with a nappy compartment, the compartment door (14) must be open. The harness must not be twisted or crossed.

Loosening the harness: Press the adjuster button (11) at the front edge of Baboo, at the same time pulling the harness (9) (Fig. B).

Tightening the harness: Pull adjuster strap (10) until harness is tight (Fig. B).

The handle has 4 modes (Fig. 1).

1 Automatic mode

2 Carrying mode

3 Rocking mode

4 Sitting mode

The handle is swung forwards or backwards by pressing the buttons (2) on both sides of the handle at the same time. In positions B, C and D the buttons automatically spring back out.

GB

Open harness system remove shoulder pads and pull backside of the cover forward.

The pelvis inlay now can be taken out in an upper direction.

Afterwards pull the harness through the cover, re-attach the belt padding and pull cover over the shell.
