This Booster Seat is designed for use by children from approximately 4 years of age up
to approximately 6 to 8 years of age in vehicles using a lap-sash seat belt or with a seat
belt and Child Harness. It must not be used with just a lap only seat belt as the upper body
of the child is not protected. This Booster Seat is tted with the Versa-Tether™ catch that
allows it to be used with a child harness.
Only the Safe-n-Sound™Protecta PLUS™Harness Series 220/2010 or Babylove EzyGo
Harness™ Series BL220/2010 child harnesses are suitable for use with this product.
No other Harness is suitable with this booster seat unless advised by Safe-n-Sound.
A child that is not tall enough to reach the lowest shoulder height marker in their seat with
in-built harness will be too small for this booster seat. This booster seat should be used
until the child no longer ts in the seat or the child can sit in the car’s seat with their lower
leg able to hang over the seat cushion.
This booster seat is not designed to be reclined.
CAREFULLY READ ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION.
IN THE EVENT OF DOUBT ABOUT THE METHOD OF INSTALLATION, CONSULT
SAFE-N-SOUND OR A CHILD RESTRAINT FITTING STATION AUTHORISED BY A
RELEVANT TRANSPORT AUTHORITY. IN NEW ZEALAND, CONTACT THE AGENT FOR
THE VEHICLE.
THIS RESTRAINT MUST BE USED IN CARS WITH FORWARD FACING SEATS WITH A
LAP-SASH SEAT BELT OR WITH A SEAT BELT AND CHILD HARNESS.
No child restraint can guarantee absolute protection from injury in every crash. However, to
ensure that your child gets all the protection designed into the restraint PLEASE READ AND
FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
Always store the instruction book under the base, for future reference.
• Use the restraint exactly as shown in the instructions.

seat belt and child harness.
• The lap part of the seat belt must be firmly across the thighs and sash straps fitted
diagonally across the chest and on the shoulder.
• If used with a child harness, the lap strap of the seat belt must be adjusted firmly first,

reduced.

the plastic.

HOW TO SETUP
ADJUSTING THE
SLIDEGUARD™CLIP POSITION
A. Adjust the crotch straps for the SLIDEGUARD™clip to
the correct length for your child. It should be kept as low as
possible to keep the lap portion of the seat belt engaged
low-over the hips. Ensure the SLIDEGUARD™clip does not
push into your child's thighs as this may cause discomfort.
B. The crotch strap length adjusters can be found under the
seat. Turn the booster over and adjust as shown.
C. To change the length of the crotch strap, thread through
the adjuster in the direction of the arrows shown.
ALWAYS USE THIS DEVICE.
Lower edge of

To shorten To lengthen
IMPORTANT :
You must adjust the crotch strap to the correct length for your child before installing the
restraint as it cannot be adjusted in the car.
Always return the crotch strap to its original shorter length when using the seat with a
smaller child. The SLIDEGUARD™clip must always be positioned low down on your child's
body - it will not connect correctly with the seat belt if it is too high. DO NOT attempt to
remove or dismantle the crotch strap.
HOW TO INSTALL
INSTALLING INTO VEHICLE
A. Position the restraint in the car forward facing in the
chosen seating position. Adjust the headrest to the
correct height for your child (refer to page 11). Ensure
the seating position has a child restraint anchorage
tting. Refer to the car owner's handbook. If no tting is
provided refer to anchor tting information on pages 34
to 36.

excess strap from the storage band, then press the
adjuster button (1) and pull the strap with the attachment
clip (2). Hook the attachment clip to the anchor tting.

adjusting strap (3) to remove slack. Do not tighten
causing the restraint base to lift off the vehicle seat.
