PRODUCT CARE

To guarantee that your car seat provides the maximum
protection, it is essential to comply with the following points:
• All major components of the car seat must be regularly
checked for damage. The mechanical parts must work
without problems.
• Make sure that the car seat is not jammed between hard
parts such as the car door, seat rails etc., which can
damage it.
• Avoid getting any dirt or sand in between the upper seat
shell and the base. This can have a negative impact on the
performance of the rotation and recline function. Should
this happen the dirt should be removed before rotating
and reclining the seat any further to avoid any permanent
damage of the seat. To do that remove the seat from the
base.
• If e.g. the car seat is dropped, it must be tested by the
manufacturer before being used again.
Is the base stored away it is crucial to fold the load leg in a
way so the characteristic noise will stop. Therefore a small
slot at the bottom of the base is provided. This will protect
the battery.
Is the base not in use for a long time it is important to remove
the battery so it can't harm the base through escaping liquids
(see chapter: „HOW TO CHANGE BATTERY").
