Important safety notes
G WARNING
If the integrated child seat or the ICS padded
play table is modified, damaged or subjected
to a load in an accident, it cannot perform its
intended protective function. A child there-
fore cannot be restrained in the event of an
accident, heavy braking or a sudden change of
direction. This poses an increased risk of
injury or even fatal injury.
Immediately replace an integrated child seat
or ICS padded play table that has been modi-
fied, damaged or subjected to a heavy load as
the result of an accident. Only use the ICS
padded play table with its original cover or
with a cover that has been approved by the
manufacturer, and do not used a protective
cover.
G WARNING
If the ICS padded play table is exposed to
direct sunlight or heat, parts could heat up.
Children could suffer burns on these parts,
particularly on metallic parts. There is a risk of
injury.
If you and your child leave the vehicle, cover
the ICS padded play table so that it is not
exposed to direct sunlight and heat. If the ICS
padded play table has been exposed to direct
sunlight, allow it to cool before securing a
child to it. Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle.
Observe the notes on the ICS padded play
table ( page 63).
