visible to the naked eye. It must therefore
be replaced.
• Do not use second hand child car seats:
they may have suffered structural dam-
age which is not visible to the naked eye
but however compromise the safety of
the product.
• The seat fabric must only be replaced with
another approved by the manufacturer as
it constitutes an integral part of the child
car seat. To ensure the safety of the child
car seat, never use it without its fabric cover.
• Check that the harness straps are not
twisted and try to prevent them, or any
other part of the car seat from getting
trapped in the car door or rubbing against
sharp objects. Should the belt be slashed
or frayed it must be replaced.
• Do not transport loose or unsecured
objects or baggage on the back shelf of
the vehicle: in the event, of an accident
or sudden braking, they may injure the
passengers.
• Ensure that all the car passengers fasten
their seat belts, for their own safety and
because, during the journey, they may
injure the child in the event of an accident
or sudden braking of the car.
• On long journeys make frequent stops.
Children tire easily. Never, for any reason,
remove your child from the child car seat
whilst the car is moving. If your child needs
attention, find a safe place and pull over.
• Premature babies born before the 37th
week of pregnancy can be at risk if placed
in a child car seat. These newborn babies
may encounter breathing problems when
sat in a child car seat. We therefore recom-
mend you contact your doctor or hospital
staff, before leaving the hospital, so they
can evaluate your baby properly and rec-
ommend the most suitable type of child
car seat.
