SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

THESE INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION. FITTING
THE SEAT INCORRECTLY CAN PUT YOUR CHILD AT RISK.
This car seat must only be fitted on the rear seat of a vehicle equipped with
ISOFIX fastenings and a Top Tether anchor (universal ISOFIX approval).
Please refer to your car manual.
Please refer to your car user manual to locate the additional Top Tether
anchor point. Never attach the Top Tether to a point that is not recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer. Never alter the vehicle yourself in order to try
and fasten the Top Tether (for example by piercing, screwing or attaching an
anchor point yourself).
Always remember to attach and correctly adjust the child's harness and never drive
away without checking that the seat is securely fastened to the car's rear seat as
indicated in this manual. Make sure the harness buckle is fitted as low as possible
to keep the lap section safely across the child's pelvis. Check that the harness straps
are not twisted. The child car seat must be firmly attached to the seat as closely as
possible (no gap) to ensure maximum protection. See the procedure recommended
in these instructions. Under no circumstances should the car seat be altered in any
way or should parts be added to it. You should replace this car seat if it is severely
impacted during an accident or if it shows wear and tear. Regularly check that
the harness shows no sign of wear and tear, particularly the fastening points, the
stitching and the adjuster belts. Never leave your child in the seat unsupervised.
Make sure that no part of the seat is trapped in a door or folding seat. If your car is
fitted with a rear folding seat, check that it is securely locked in the upright position.
Direct exposure to the sun increases the temperature inside the vehicle. You should
therefore cover the car seat when it is empty so that the parts, especially the buckles,
do not heat up and burn the child. Never use the car seat without its cover or use
any other cover than that recommended by the manufacturer. In the event of an
emergency, the child must be able to be released quickly. The buckle, which opens
easily, should therefore never be covered. Tell your child that he/she must never
play with the belt buckle. Always remember to check that there is no food or other
waste in the belt buckle or the central adjuster. Luggage and all other heavy or sharp
objects in the vehicle must be securely held down. Objects that are not fastened
can injure the child if an accident occurs. Do not dress your child in overly-bulky
clothing in winter.
