The elastic strap provides extra safety to hold the bag more firmly in place when necessary (the buckle is usually sufficient, see picture C). It is used for example if the bag is heavily loaded or if you cycle with SitSac on your back. Place the elastic strap behind the cover and snap it into the two small plastic “pockets” on each side of the cover.

How to use the SitSac booster cushion in cars and buses:
1. SitSac is ECE-approved by the Swedish Road Administration, group 2-3 for children weighing 15-36 kg (app. 4-12 years).
2. The SitSac booster cushion is designed to be used in cars or buses, together with 3-point seat-belts, approved according to ECE regulation no.16 or other equivalent standards.
3. The EU legislation states that children up to 135 cm must use a child seat or booster cushion when travelling in cars or buses equipped with 3-point safety-belts. For further information go to www.childcarseats.org.uk.
4. SitSac is prepared for use as a booster cushion by detaching the small backpack, detachable bag, as shown in figures I-II (see diagrams on page 3).
5. Gather the carrying straps under the seat when placing the booster cushion on the car or bus seat. (figure III).
6. Pull the waist-belt (dashed) (figure IV) over the legs by guiding it under the seat-belt guides on the side of the booster cushion.
7. Tighten the seat-belt as much as possible without inflicting any discomfort on the child.
8. Make sure the seat-belt is outstretched and not twisted
9. After a collision or heavy braking where SitSac is subjected to large forces, the booster cushion must be replaced with a new one.
10. The user must not modify or in any other way alter the booster cushion. The labels are also important for the safety and must not be removed.
11. The SitSac booster cushion must always be used together with the SitSac seat bag. The seat bag is a part of the ECE-approved design and the sit cushion must not be replaced by any other sit cushion other than those recommended by the SitSac manufacturer.
12. Do not expose the booster cushion to strong sunlight or severe cold for longer periods as this may affect the quality of the plastic. The plastic may also be unpleasantly warm or cold to sit on. During hot summer days the booster cushion should be covered if left in the car for several hours.
13. Loose objects, e.g. the SitSac detachable bag, should be stowed so that they can not cause any harm in the event of a collision or heavy braking.
14. The plastic cover on the top of the bag should be closed when the child is travelling in the car and remain closed throughout the journey.

NOTICE:
This is a “Universal” child restraint. It is approved to ECE regulation No. 44, 04 series of amendments, for general use in vehicles and will fit most, but not all, car seats.
A correct fit is likely if the vehicle manufacturer has declared in the vehicle handbook that the vehicle is capable of accepting a “Universal” child restraint for this age group.
This child restraint has been classified as ”Universal” under more stringent conditions than those which applied to earlier designs which do not carry this notice.
If in doubt, consult either the child restraint manufacturer or the retailer.

About SitSac booster bag
SitSac booster bag is a new, unique backpack for children from 4 to 12 years, with an integrated ECE approved booster cushion, so that children easily can bring along their own booster cushion where it is needed. SitSac is a complement to car child seats with a backrest, which often are installed in the family car, but which are bulky to move or carry around. With SitSac children can always travel safely on bus trips as well as when travelling in vehicles other than the family car. The straps are adjustable so that adults can also carry the backpack, especially for younger children, from 4 to 5 years. A few tips on when to use your SitSac:
To ride safely in car pools to training and other leisure activities.
When riding with grandparents. They won’t have to buy additional booster cushions for their cars.
As a school bag. The protected pocket holds A4 sized books and documents.
On bus trips with the school or sports club. An increasing number of buses are equipped
with 3-point safety belts.
In the rental car on vacation abroad. SitSac can also be carried as hand luggage on most flights.
To get a better view in the cinema, theatre or restaurant.
Washing instructions
A zipper permits the sit cushion to be removed for separate washing. Wash with similar colours in 30 degrees, do not tumble dry, drip dry.
