Kinderkraft XPEDITION Bedienungsanleitung Seite 53

• Do not use replacement upholstery, other than recommended by the manufacturer, as it is
an integral part of the child restraint system.
• It is advisable to keep the child safety seat manual throughout its use.
• Do not use other fixing points than described in the manual and marked on the child safety
seat.
• All hard elements and plastic parts of the child safety seat must be placed and installed in a
way that they cannot get trapped by a sliding seat or vehicle door under normal conditions
of use.
• Regularly check the technical condition of 5-point safety belts, pay special attention to fixing
points, seams and adjusting elements.
• Stop using the child safety seat if its parts have been damaged or got loose.
• In case of emergency, it is important that you quickly undo safety belts. This means that the
button which releases 5-point safety belts is not fully secured. Make sure your child does
not play with the buckle.
• The back of the child safety seat backrest must rest against the car seat backrest. Make sure
the car headrest does not lead to emergence of undesired space between the safety seat
backrest and car seat backrest. Some car headrests are an obstacle when assembling the
car safety seat and this is why they must be disassembled in the first place.
• Make sure the belt is properly carried in guides. The buckle of the car seat belt must be
lower than the belt guide in the child safety seat (the buckle must not touch the guide). In
case of doubts, please contact the manufacturer of the child safety seat.
• Always show the child how to behave and fasten seat belts. Also, an adult who is not secured
with safety belts may pose a threat to the child.
• Before every car travel, make sure the child safety seat has been properly attached.
• The child safety seat must be secured also when it is not used. Unsecured child safety seat
may cause passengers to get injured even in case of emergency braking.
4. How to secure the child
4.0 Seat liner
The seat liner improves comfort and provides additional support to very small children. We
recommend using a lower and upper part to serve as a child's head cushion until the child is
5 kg heavy (fig. A.1a). When the child is 5 kg heavy, we advise you to detach the upper part
(fig. A.1b). We suggest using an additional seat liner until the child is 12 kg heavy. When the
child's weight exceeds 12 kg, the seat liner must be removed (fig. A.1c).
Remember: The seat liner and protective cushions must be stored in a safe place for future
use. NOTE! Use only this original liner – Kinderkraft Xpedition. This liner is intended for use
only with Xpedition child safety seat.
4.1 Height of headrest and shoulder belts
For 0+ and 1 weight groups, when you use 5-point safety belts to set height of the headrest:
• Simultaneously keep the button which regulates 5-point safety belts (9) and then slacken
belts to freely adjust height of the headrest.
• Keep the headrest adjustment handle (6) at the back of the headrest. If you want to lift the
