intense sunlight.
dWarning!
Loss of safety function.
f Regularly inspect all important parts for signs
of damage. Make sure that the mechanical
components function properly.
f The child seat must not be used without a
cover. Make sure to use only a genuine cover,
because the cover is an essential part of the
system function.

being dropped, etc.) checked by the

dNotes!
f Please do not leave your child alone in the
vehicle.
f Using the child seat can produce signs of wear
on some sensitive car seats (e.g. leather). To
avoid this, you can place a blanket or a towel
underneath the child seat.
f Make sure that the child seat is not trapped
between hard parts (vehicle door, seat rails,
etc).
f In order to protect your baby, do not place any
objects in the footwell in front of the ISOFIX
adapter.
f The baby shell requires only one vehicle seat.
However, this does require the baby to be in a
semi-reclined position. Take your baby out of
the baby shell as often as possible in order to
relieve his or her spinal column. When outside
the vehicle, also remember not to leave your
baby in the baby shell for too long a time.
f Please refer to your vehicle’s Driver’s Manual
for information on how to use the ISOFIX
mounting points in your vehicle.
