Safety instructions

Read these instructions carefully before use and keep them for future reference. Failure to read these instructions may compromise the safety of your child.

NB:

• The safety of the child seat is only guaranteed by the manufacturer when it is used by the initial purchaser. It is therefore not advisable to buy a second-hand seat.
• The child seat is no longer fit for use five years after purchase. It is possible, under certain circumstances, for the quality of the seat to be imperceptibly affected if subject to very frequent usage.

CAUTION:

• Never leave your child alone in the child seat / in the vehicle.
• The child seat may not be used on car seats with airbags. Disable the airbag if necessary (consult your car dealer).
• The child seat is only for use in car seats which face the direction of travel.
• The child seat must always face against the direction of travel - not in the direction of travel.
• The child seat may only be used on car seats with Isofix anchor points (between seat and backrest). Please comply with the regulations in force in your country.
• Do not place any objects in the footwell in front of the Isofix adapter in the interests of your baby's safety.
• An unsecured child 'seat may injure the passengers in the event of an emergency stop or an accident.
• Ensure that all items of luggage and objects which could injure passengers in the event of an accident or a sudden application of the brakes are adequately secured.
• Do not make any modifications to the child seat. This could adversely affect the safety of the seat.
• Please read these instructions for use carefully and follow the installation instructions meticulously in the interests of your child's safety.
• When not in use, the child seat should not be left in the blazing sun, the residual heat from which might later cause unnecessary discomfort to your baby.
• In an accident (even at low speed above 10 km/h) the child safety seat could suffer damage which is not necessarily obvious. In this case you must replace the child seat. Please dispose of it properly.
• Check all the main parts regularly for signs of damage. Make sure that the mechanical parts are in perfect working order.
• Make sure that the child seat does not get caught in the door of the vehicle or damaged by rotating car seats or by objects placed on the child seat (e.g. luggage), etc.
• Always arrange for us to inspect your child seat if it gets damaged (e.g. after being dropped).
