Read this instruction manual carefully before installing the Babyx child restraint. If in doubt, contact your retailer who can demonstrate a correct installation. An incorrect installation could endanger your child.
Do not use a child restraint in a seating position where an active airbag is tted. If you still wish to install the Babyx in this location the airbag must be disconnected at an authorised service centre. Some vehicles may be equipped with a switch which allows you to manually switch the airbag o. It is important to always check if the vehicle’s indicator light shows that the airbag is turned o.
This product must only be used with a 3-point vehicle seat belt that has been approved to ECE R16
or equivalent. NEVER use a 2-point seat belt.
Should you have an accident, no matter how small, your child restraint should be replaced. It may have damage that is undetectable and could seriously jeopardize your child’s safety. For this reason Axkid do not recommend purchasing second hand child restraints.
Do not dismantle, modify or add to any part of the Babyx baby seat. Any alterations or modications could endanger your child or a passenger and will invalidate the warranty.
Never leave your child unattended in the car.
Ensure the Babyx baby seat does not become trapped by any moveable seats or doors within the vehicle.
Ensure that the Babyx baby seat is secured to a car seat at all times - even when not in use.
Ensure any luggage or loose objects are secured in your vehicle as they may cause injuries to
passengers in the event of a collision.
Read this instruction manual before installing the Babyx baby seat in your vehicle. For more information and tting videos visit www.axkid.com.

WARNING: ALWAYS ensure your child is harnessed in the baby seat before lifting it.

Choose a suitable seat for tting the child car seat to. See page ‘Positioning the child car seat’.
Place the child car seat rearward-facing on the vehicle seat.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the handle is in the FITTING position (1) as shown.
Place the vehicle lap belt across the child car seat and slide the lap belt into the slots (N) on both sides of the child car seat. Buckle up the vehicle seat belt (i).
Ensure you place the Babyx baby seat on a at, level and stable surface before securing your child in the seat. Do not place your child in a sleeping bag, blanket or other bulky wrapping whilst in the child car seat. The shoulder straps will not t snugly and the child will not be safe.
Press the belt adjuster button and pull on the shoulder harness straps to create slack.
Press the red release button, unbuckle the harness and move the shoulder straps apart.
Place the child in the child car seat and ensure there are no spaces under the child.
Note: a new born baby may need extra support around the head and body. Ensure you use the supplied insert cushion (H) if you are going to use the seat for a newborn or small baby less than 2 months old (9kg or less). Also ensure that the shoulder harness is at the lowest height setting.
Place the shoulder harness over the shoulders.
Buckle up the harness. Connect the two shoulder strap connectors and insert into the buckle. Ensure harness buckle is rmly clicked into place.
Pull the harness adjuster strap to secure the harness around the child.
The harness should allow 1 nger-width (1cm) of space at the top of the shoulders. This is the ideal tightness.
Note: Check that the buckle is secured by tugging the shoulder and waist straps.

Take the diagonal belt around the back of the child car seat and slot it into the diagonal seat belt
guide (J). Ensure that the section of belt which runs from the seat buckle to the diagonal seat belt guide (J) is threaded between the shell and the stroller adaptor (P).
Once the seat belts are in their correct mounting points make sure the seat belt buckle is secure and there are no twists in the belt and that all slack is removed from the lap and diagonal sections.
Ensure the seat belt buckle is positioned low, away from the top edge of the baby seat and that the diagonal section of the seat belt passes behind the stroller adaptor (P).
If the vehicle seat belt buckle is above the top edge of the baby seat then this car seat is not suitable for the vehicle (this is called ‘buckle crunch’ and can cause the vehicle seat belt to come undone in an accident).

Care And Maintenance
The seat cover can be removed and washed in a washing machine at 30º C on the “Gentle Cycle” programme. Do not put the cover in a dryer as this can damage the cover and the padding may separate from the fabric. Visit www.axkid.com to nd videos explaining how to remove and attach the cover.
Any plastic parts of the Babyx can be cleaned with mild detergent and water. Do not use aggressive chemicals containing solvents etc, as this can cause damage to the plastic and compromise the safety of the child restraint.
All materials used in the Babyx child restraint are recyclable and should be recycled as per your local legislation. Ask your local recycling centre for advice when recycling this product.
Do not make any modications or alterations to the Babyx child restraint other than those described in this instruction manual. Follow the instructions in this manual carefully. Any repairs must be carried out by the manufacturer or agent.
If the seat cover needs replacing ensure only original products from Axon Kids are used. If other products are used the Babyx safety system may be compromised and could lead to severe injury or death in case of an accident.
All materials used have a very high UV-resistance rating. However, UV-light is very aggressive and will ultimately lead to fading of the seat cover. This is not covered by our warranty as it is considered normal wear and tear.

you save your receipt and bring it to your place of purchase should you have any warranty
issues. The warranty does not cover: * Normal wear and tear * Damage due to incorrect use, neglect or accident * If repairs have been carried out by a third party
