INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

IN ORDER TO AVOID RISKS WHEN USING THE PRODUCT READ THE ENTIRE INSTRUCTION BOOKLET CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING THE CAR SEAT AND STORE THE BOOKLET FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

WARNINGS

• Before use, remove and dispose of all plastic bags and packaging materials and keep them out of reach of children. Please dispose of these items as sorted waste in accordance with applicable laws.
• Do not insert your fingers inside the mechanisms.
• WARNING: To avoid strangling hazards, always check that the elastic bands of the hood are properly fastened to the handle both before and during use
• Every country has different safety laws and regulations for the transportation of children in cars, contacting the local authorities for more information is therefore advisable.

• Prevent anybody from using the product without reading the instructions. Store this manual for future reference.
  • Make sure that all passengers in the vehicle know how to release the child from the child car seat in case of an emergency.

• If you need to carry out any adjustment on the child car seat or on your child when travelling, stop the vehicle in a safe place.

• In the first few months after birth, children may have difficulty breathing in a seated position. Avoid leaving children to sleep on the seat until they can lift their heads themselves.
• Premature babies born before the 37th week of pregnancy can be at risk if placed in a child car seat. These babies might incur breathing problems when sitting in a child car seat. We therefore recommend you contact your doctor or the hospital staff, before leaving the hospital. They can recommend the most suitable type of child car seat based on your child's situation.
• Periodically check that the child has not opened the safety buckle on the child car seat and that he/she is not playing with any part pertaining to it.
• Do not let children play with car seat components or parts.
• When the child car seat is not in use, it should be left secured to the car's seat, or stowed in the car's boot with the seat inclination adjuster handle completely inserted into the lower part of the child car seat. In fact, an unsecured car seat may pose a hazard to the passengers in the event of an accident or sudden braking.
• Any adjustments made to the car seat should only be carried out by an adult.
• The risk of serious injuries to your child increases, not only in the case of accidents, but also in other circumstances (sudden braking, etc.) if these instructions are not followed carefully.
• No car seat can guarantee your child's total safety in the event of an accident, but the use of this product reduces the risk of serious injuries or death when installed correctly.
• Always use the child car seat, fitted correctly, including for short journeys. Your child's safety will be compromised if you do not follow the above mentioned rule. In particular, make sure that the child car seat belt is properly tensioned, free of knots and in a proper position.
• Ensure that all the car passengers fasten their safety harnesses for their own safety and because, during the journey, they may injure

- After an accident, even if minor, the child car seat must be replaced because it may have suffered damages, although these damages may not be visible to the naked eye.

- Do not use second-hand child car seats: they may have suffered damages not visible at the naked eye, but such to compromise the product's safety.

- Do not use a car seat if it has been damaged, deformed or excessively worn out, or if any parts are missing, as the original safety features may have been compromised.

- Do not remove the labels and logos from the product.

- The seat fabric must only be replaced with another approved by the manufacturer as it forms an integral part of the child car seat. To ensure the safety of the child car seat, never use it without its fabric cover.

• The child car seat must be replaced should the harness be cut or frayed.

- This product must not be modified in any way unless the modification has been approved by the manufacturer. Do not install accessories, spare parts or components which are not supplied and approved by the manufacturer and intended for the child car seat.

- Do not use anything – pillows, blankets, etc. – to distance the child car seat from the vehicle seat or to distance the child from the child car seat: in case of accident, the child car seat may not work properly.

• Make sure that no objects are positioned between the child car seat and the vehicle seat or between the child car seat and the car door.

- Do not transport loose, unsecured objects or baggage on the back shelf of the vehicle: they may injure the passengers in the event of an accident or sudden braking.

- Never leave your child unattended in the car, it can be dangerous!

- Do not carry more than one child at a time in the car seat.

- Avoid giving food to your child while travelling, especially lollies, ice lollies or other foods on sticks. they may injure your child in case of accident or sudden braking.

- Stop frequently during long trips: children tire easily whilst using the child car seat and need to move around. It is recommended that children get in and out of the child car seat from the curbside.

- If the vehicle has been left in the sun, check that the different parts of the child car seat are not too hot: otherwise, let them cool off before accommodating your child, in order to prevent burns.

- DO NOT use the product for more than 5 years. After this period, alterations of the materials (e.g., due to exposure to sunlight) may reduce or compromise the product's effectiveness.

The Kory Essential car seat can be installed in two different ways: with the Full 360 i-Size base and without the Full 360 i-Size base, using just the vehicle seat belts. The Full 360 i-Size base can be purchased separately as an accessory.

- Configuration with the base

This is an advanced i-Size child restraint system, type approved pursuant to

ECE R129 for use on vehicle seats compatible with the i-Size system in accordance with the indications provided by the vehicle manufacturer in the instruction manual for the vehicle. If in doubt, consult either the enhanced child restraint equipment manufacturer or the retailer. If the vehicle does not have an i-Size seat check the vehicle compatibility list, available via the QR code on the product installation label and at the end of this manual.

- Configuration without the base

This is an advanced i-Size child restraint system, type approved pursuant to ECE R129 for use on vehicle seats compatible with the i-Size system in accordance with the indications provided by the vehicle manufacturer in the instruction manual for the vehicle. If in doubt, consult either the enhanced child restraint equipment manufacturer or the retailer.

FOCUS AREAS

a) Do not install the child car seat on seats where the airbag is activated. The car seat can only be installed on the front passenger seat if the front airbag is deactivated: check with the car manufacturer or see the owner's manual for instructions on how to deactivate the airbag. It is always recommended to slide the vehicle seat as far back as possible depending on whether passengers are travelling in the back seat or not. Never use this child car seat on vehicle seats facing the sides or opposite to the direction of the driver's seat (Fig. 18). According to accident statistics, a vehicle's rear seat is generally safer than the front seat: therefore, we suggest to install the car seat on the rear seat of the vehicle.
b) The car seat must only be installed rear-facing.
c) Only install on vehicle seats equipped with the Isofix System.
d) The child must not weigh more than 13 kg.
e) During installation with the Isofix system, the vehicle safety harness must not be fastened behind the car seat, as this would engage the inflatable portion of the safety harness.
f) Use of the reducer cushion (included) is mandatory up to 60 cm. Starting from 61 cm the reducer cushion is no longer necessary.

2. 40-80 cm (Max 13 kg) "Universal Belted" - installation with 3-point vehicle belt rear-facing (see illustrations from numbers 16 to 26)
