harness buckle by pressing on the red button in the centre of the buckle. Place your
child in the car seat. Put the harness buckle ends together and close the buckle,
making sure you hear a ‘click’ (14). Pull on the adjusting strap of one of the upper
harness sections until it is properly tightened against your child (15). Repeat the
operation with the adjusting strap of the second upper harness section.
CAUTION: A correctly adjusted harness is essential for your child’s protection.
There should not be more than a finger’s width between the harness and your
child.
Installation without the harness
Gr. 2-3, from 15 to 36 kg (from approximately 3 to 12 years)
Ensure that the harness of your car seat has been dismantled before starting to
install it in the vehicle.
• Dismantling the harness: Put the harness connectors together and close the
buckle in order to assemble the various parts of the harness and the crotch strap.
This will enable you to store the harness more easily for future use. Repeat opera-
tions (3) and (4) on each upper section of the harness. Remove one of the lower
section of the harness by twisting the metal keeper located under the base (16)
and then pulling the end of the harness strap through the slots of the base and the
cover (17). Repeat the operation on the second lower section. Remove the crotch
strap by twisting the metal keeper and by passing it through the slots in the base
and the cover (18).
Your car seat is fitted with an adjustable headrest that has been designed to sup-
port your child throughout growth by providing maximum side protection.
Raise the adjustable headrest to its highest position. Place the car seat against the
back seat of the vehicle (19) and feed the diagonal strap of the belt through the
headrest guide (20) (21). Sit your child in the car seat. Make sure that the child’s
back is fully in contact with the back of the car seat. Pull and fasten the vehicle
seat belt. Pass the diagonal strap of the belt under the arm rest opposite the belt
guide used. The waist strap of the belt passes under both armrests (22). Lower
the adjustable headrest and adjust it to the height of your child (23). It should be
positioned so that it surrounds your child’s head, providing maximum lateral pro-
tection, whilst guiding the diagonal belt over the child’s shoulder so that it doesn’t
extend onto the child’s neck (24) (25). Tighten the vehicle seat belt.
Make sure that the seat belt is properly tightened, that it is not twisted and that it
is not positioned at the level of your child’s neck.
To remove your child from the car seat, simply unbuckle the seat belt and place it
at the side of the car seat. The belt will remain suspended from the headrest belt
guide (26).
