The Best Position In The Car - CYBEX SOLUTION X-FIX User Manual

THE BEST POSITION IN THE CAR

Without using the connectors the CYBEX Solution X-fix can be installed on all
vehicle seats equipped with a three-point automatic retractor belt. We generally
recommend, however, using the child seat in the back of the vehicle. In the
front, your child is usually exposed to higher risks in case of an accident.
Warning! You must not use the Solution X-fix with a two-point belt or a lap
belt. When securing your child with a two-point belt, the child may sustain
lethal injuries in an accident.
When installing the CYBEX Solution X-fix with its ISOFIX-CONNECT
system the child seat falls into the „semi-universal" admission category,
i.e. it may only be used in certain types of vehicles. Please refer to the
list of approved cars to check your vehicle's compatibility. This list is
updated regularly, and the latest version can be obtained from CYBEX, your
retailer or accessed online at www.cybex-online.com. In exceptions, the child
seat may be used on the passenger seat. Please note the following for such
cases:
• In cars equipped with airbags you should push the passenger seat as far back
as possible. please make sure that the upper point of the vehicle seat belt
stays behind the belt guide of the child seat.
• you must follow the recommendations of the vehicle manufacturer.
Warning! The seat belt (f) must run diagonally from the back and must
never lead to the front to the upper belt point of the front seat of in your
vehicle. Should you be unable to adjust this for example by pushing the
seat to the front or by using the seat on a different seat in the car, then the
child seat is not suitable for this vehicle.
Luggage or other objects in the vehicle which may cause injuries in an accident
must always be secured properly. Loose parts may turn into deadly projectiles
during an impact.
Warning! For vehicles with passenger seats that are positioned sideways,
the use of this child seat is not allowed. For seats that are positioned
against the direction of travel, e.g. in a van or a minibus, the use of the
child seat is allowed, assuming the seat is approved to carry an adult.
Please ensure that the headrest is not taken off when mounting the child
seat on a passenger seat which is positioned against the direction of
travel! The child seat must have the seat belt fastened even when not in
use. This is necessary to avoid the driver or passenger getting injured by
a loose child seat when making an emergency stop or in case of a crash.
Note! Please never leave your child unattended in the car.
