3. Placing your child in the Tobi

3.1 Using the harness system

A. Adjusting the height of the harness
Before placing the child in the Tobi and locking the harness belt, first determine the correct height of the
shoulder belts and headrest.
• Open the belt buckle (15) by pressing the red button of the belt buckle.
15
• The shoulder belts are now automatically released and can be made longer without pressing
any other buttons.
• Loosen the shoulder belts by pulling them forwards as far as possible (16).
16
NOTE!
• Do not pull on the belt pads when doing so.
• Place the child with his/her back straight in the Tobi and check the belt height (17).
17
NOTE!
• The height of the shoulder belts is correct when the belt disappears into the shell slightly
18
above your child's shoulders (18).
• Adjust the height of the shoulder belts in combination with and by means of the headrest.
• To move the shoulder belts and headrest to the required height, move the headrest by the handle on
19
the top at the same time forwards and up or down (19). The shoulder belts including headrest
can be set to 6 different heights.
10
Rear view Side view,
on the side where the belt
buckle is located.
B. Placing the child in the Tobi
• Place the child with his/her back straight in the Tobi.
• Slide the buckle sections together (part A on part B) and insert them into the belt buckle with a clearly
20
audible "click" (20). When the buckle is closed, the belt system is blocked and can only be pulled tighter.
If you need to make the belts longer, the buckle must first be opened again.
• Now pull the harness system tight by pulling on the adjustment belt (21,2). Pull until the indicator on the
21 22
belt buckle turns green (21,2). If this is still silver the belt should be pulled tighter (22). Make sure that the
indicator is green before driving. If it seems like the harness belt is still loose even though the indicator is
on green, the belt can be pulled more tightly. This will ensure optimum safety. While driving, it is possible
that the indicator reverts back to silver as a result of the child's movements. This is normal and will not
affect the child's safety.
NOTE!
• The tighter the belts fit around a child, the better the protection.
NOTE!
• Make sure the textured (anti-slip) side of the belt pads are positioned properly on your child's
shoulders/chest.
NOTE!
• Make sure the belts are not twisted or folded double.
Always use the belt pads, as they are essential for your child's safety.
Tell the child never to play with the belt buckle.

3.2 Seat positions (Adjusting the seat into sitting and reclining positions)

The Tobi can be set in 5 positions.
• Pull the positioning handle under the front of the seat upwards and then pull or push the seat forwards
23
or backwards (23).
• Release the positioning handle in the desired position and push until you hear a "click".
NOTE!
• Check to make sure the Tobi is securely locked in the desired position by pulling on it.
Checklist...
To ensure the optimal safety of the child, check before every trip to make sure that ...
• the entire Tobi is installed securely and firmly in the car,
• the height of the shoulder belts is suitable for your child,
• the belts are not twisted,
• the textured (anti-slip) side of the belt pads is positioned properly on your child's shoulders/chest,
• the child is secure in the belts, the belt buckle is shut and the indicator is on green,
• the tether on the Tobi is not damaged. If it is damaged, do not use the Tobi in any circumstances and
