HOW TO INSTALL USING SEATBELT

HOW TO INSTALL USING LAP SASH
SEATBELT
After adjusting the shoulder belts (refer to page 16 and 17)
fasten the child restraint with seatbelt as follows:
A. Ensure the Lower Connectors Protection Moulding is
fitted and the ISOFIT connector assembly is pushed
fully inwards.
B. Position the restraint in forward-facing mode and align
restraint centrally within the chosen seating position.
Some vehicle seat fabrics (particularly velours) may
be damaged by a child restraint used continuously.
We recommend the use of a full Messy Mat™ or thick
towel to keep the vehicle seat in good condition.
C. Fully lengthen seatbelt. Thread the seatbelt into child
restraint following the seatbelt path (yellow marker)
as shown, ensure the seatbelt is behind the harness
straps and the lap part of the seatbelt is below the
hook (as shown), on each side. Engage vehicle
seatbelt buckle and tongue.
D. Lengthen the top tether strap and connect the
Attachment Clip to the vehicle upper anchorage point
making sure to remove as many twists as possible.
To lengthen the top tether strap, fully press Adjuster
Button (A) while pulling top tether strap (B) to slacken
as shown right.
Refer to your vehicle owner's manual for the location
of the upper anchorage point in the car. If the vehicle
is not fitted with a child restraint upper anchorage
point then refer to page 41 to 44 for the installation
of the upper anchorage point provided with this child
restraint.

HOW TO INSTALL USING SEATBELT
E. Push down on the restraint to compress it into the
vehicle seat. Whilst compressed in the seat, pull
on the lap portion to remove all slack from the
belt. Pull the sash belt and allow excess belt to
feed back into the retractor. Ensure all slack is
removed from the lap and sash belt.
F. On the side opposite the car seat belt buckle,
swivel the clamping lever down and insert sash
belt into the lock-off. Remove the belt slack by
pulling tight. Swivel the clamping lever upwards
until it engages. For inertia/retractable seatbelts,
allow excess belt to feed back into retractor.
Re-tension by pulling the diagonal belt whilst the
lock-off is closed.

NOTE: Seatbelt extenders should not be used if the seatbelt is not long enough to secure the child
restraint. If they are used then the buckle tongue must not enter the seatbelt path.
G. If using just a lap seatbelt, thread the seatbelt through the back of the seat following the belt path. Keep
the belt under the hook on each side. Then engage the buckle and tighten the seatbelt so the restraint
is held firmly against the car's back.
