• Do not carry more than one child at a time
in the child car seat.
• Ensure that all the car passengers fasten
their seat belt, for their own safety and be-
cause, during the journey, they may injure
the child in the event of an accident or sud-
den braking of the car.
• WARNING! When adjusting the headrest
or backrest, ensure that movable parts of
the child car seat do not come into contact
with the child.
• When travelling, stop the vehicle in a safe
place before carrying out any adjustment op-
erations on the child car seat or for the child.
• Check periodically that your child does not
unfasten the buckle of the safety harness,
or that it does not tamper with the child car
seat or any of its parts.
• Avoid giving food to your child while trav-
elling, in particular lollypops, ice lollies or
other foods on sticks: it may injure your
child in the event of an accident or sudden
braking.
• On long journeys, it is recommended to
make frequent stops: children tire very eas-
ily in child car seats and need to move. It is
recommended to let your child in and out
of the car from side pavement, not traffic
road side
• Do not remove any labels or brands from
the fabric cover; since this operation may
damage the cover of the child car seat.
• Prolonged exposure of the child car seat to
direct sunlight may cause the materials or
fabric to fade.
• If the vehicle has been left in the sun, check
that the different parts of the child car seat
are not too hot: in such an event, let the
child car seat cool down first before placing
the child into the it, in order to avoid burns.
• When the child car seat is not in use, it
should be left secured to the car's seat, or
stowed in the car's boot with the seat incli-
nation adjuster handle completely inserted
into the lower part of the child car seat. An
unsecured child car seat may be a source
of danger in the event of an accident or
sudden braking.
