Press down on the base to engage it, a click will indicate successful engagement (g. 7). IMPORTANT: After attaching the seat to the base, the control indicator ‘b’ on the front of the ISOFIX base should change from red to green on both sides to indicate correct attachment (g. 7). Lift the car seat to check that it is correctly engaged/locked and that all the attachments are correctly engaged, both the front metal bar ‘c’ and the rear metal bar ‘d’.

In the case of daily use, the ISOFIX base can be left mounted in the vehicle by simply removing the seat. 360° SEAT ROTATION The 360-degree rotation of the seat makes it easy to change the direction to forwardfacing or rear-facing and facilitates the process of putting the child in the car seat and removing them. Pull the rotation lever (fig. 9) and rotate the seat towards the door, to place your child in the car seat easily. To secure the child, see section “Harness adjustment”. Rotate the seat into the forward-facing or rear-facing position, and a click will indicate that it has locked in place correctly.

The seat of the car seat can be reclined in multi-positions. To adjust the tilt: Press the adjustment handle “e” located under the front of the car seat and, holding it down, pull or push the seat forwards or backwards. Release the handle when the seat is in the desired position and make sure that it is locked correctly; you will hear a “click” when the seat has attached (g. 10).
