4. Overlap the two ends of the harness
straps, insert them together inside the
buckle until you hear them click into place
(Diag. 24) WARNING! Never insert just one
end of the harness into the buckle and do
not insert them one at a time.
5. Tighten the safety harness by pulling the
adjuster strap (Diag. 25)
3.2 ADJUSTING THE POSITION OF
THE HARNESS STRAPS
WARNING! The harness straps must always
be adjusted to adapt to the child's growth
phase. Before installing the child car seat
inside the vehicle, adjust the harness straps
to the right height.
To adjust them correctly, the harness straps
must come out from the backrest at the
height of the child's shoulders (Diag. 26)
The child car seat straps can be adjusted to
3 height positions.
To adjust the harness straps, proceed as
follows:
1. Remove the shoulder pads by unthread-
ing them through the slots in the fabric
cover.
2. Press the red button to open the har-
ness buckle.
3. Slide the harness straps out from behind
the backrest and thread them though the
slot which is most suitable for the child's
height (Diag. 27A and 27B).
WARNING! Make sure that the harness straps
are always threaded between the slot ele-
ment ( R) and the shell.
WARNING! The booster cushion guarantees
correct containment and the ideal position
for the neck and back of babies from when
they are born until they weigh about 6 Kg.
3.3 FIXED OR ROCKING POSITION OF
THE CHILD SEAT (ROCKER CHAIR
MODE)
When the child car seat is not used inside
the vehicle, it can be used as a rocking or
static chair.
To allow it to rock, close the stabiliser block
(Diag. 14) and move the carry handle to
position B (Diag. 5).
To use it in fixed mode, fold out the stabiliser
block and move the handle bar to position
D (Diag. 5).
Only place the child seat on stable horizontal
surfaces.
WARNING! Before carrying the child car seat,
always bring the carry handle into a vertical
position (B).
WARNING! Never leave your child unat-
tended.
WARNING! Always use the restraint harness.
WARNING! Using the child car seat on raised
surfaces such as tables, chairs etc can be
very dangerous.
WARNING! This child car seat is not designed
for long periods of sleep.
WARNING! Do not use the seat when the
child is able to sit up on his own.
This child car seat is not a replacement for a
bed or cot. If the child needs to sleep, they
should be moved to a bed or a cot.
Do not use the child seat if some of its parts
are broken or missing.
3.4 USE WITH THE STROLLER
WARNING! The Auto-Fix car seat can be
fitted to Chicco strollers equipped with
the specific fixing system as standard or
a fitting adaptor system can be purchased
separately.
WARNING! Please read the Stroller instruc-
tion manual when using the child car seat
on the stroller. The CHICCO strollers, which
use the CLIK CLAK system, have armrests
with special devices that allow you to fasten
the child seat to the stroller frame without
any need for additional fixtures.
Before fixing the car seat, remove the arm
covers completely.
To install the child seat on the stroller, pro-
ceed as follows:
1. Bring the carry handle into a vertical posi-
tion (Diag. 28).
2. Attach the two Clik Clak fixing hooks of
the Car seat (N) to the armrests of the
stroller or to the fixing system purchased
separately, making sure that they are cor-
rectly fixed on both sides. A click will be
heard confirming fixing (fig. 29).
WARNING!
Before use, ensure that all the child seat-
fastening devices are correctly fitted in place.
To remove the child seat from the stroller:
1. Bring the carry handle into a vertical posi-
tion (B).
