1.2 Functions of the Basic Unit
1.2.1 Seat and safety belt
The frames of all Chariot models are stiffened by an additional cross brace, which also serves as an anchor point for the lap
belts and for bracing the seat. This is important when one child is placed in the middle or for two children of different sizes as
the reinforced seat is thus protected against sagging.
With the tried and tested 5-point seatbelt system, children up to 5 years old are securely but comfortably strapped in.
Cabriolet, Comfort and Cheetah: After seating the child, pull the shoulder harness
through the O-ring of the crotch harness. Plug the clip into the buckle of the
shoulder harness.
First adjust the crotch harness so that the O-ring is located in the child’s lower
chest area.
Tighten the shoulder harness securely, so that the child is safely fastened by the
belt.
Fasten the lap belt!
Note:
Always make sure that the child feels comfortable.
If only one child is to be carried, the manufacturer recommends placing him/her in the middle of the seat. This requires the
conversion of one of the shoulder harnesses for use in the middle position (applies to both trailer versions).
For the Corsaire XL, Captain XL, Cougar and CX models it is only necessary to refasten the padded shoulder harness into
both of the middle fastex buckles; for the Cabriolet, Comfort and Cheetah models the shoulder harness needs to be
unstrapped and restrapped in the middle position, see the illustration on the next page.
Safety Recommendation:
Never transport your children without the safety belts being properly and fully adjusted, otherwise your child could be
seriously or even fatally injured in the event of an accident!
Tipp:
In order to facilitate entry of the child, the padded shoulder harness can be velcroed in the upper seat area.

The seat restraints of the Corsaire XL, Captain XL, Cougar and CX De Luxe versions
come with a padded shoulder harness.
The shoulder harness is fastened using two fastex buckles on the vertical straps
above the seat backrest. So that children can sit comfortably (especially smaller
ones), loosen the fastex buckles of the shoulder harness, place the child on the seat,
guide the shoulder harness over the shoulders of the child and secure it by faste-
ning the fastex buckles.
The crotch strap is fastened using a fastex buckle on the shoulder harness. To fix
the crotch harness-connector in the buckle of the shoulder harness, slightly lift the
tab in the lower part of the shoulder harness.
First adjust the crotch harness so that the V-area of the padded harness is located
in the child’s lower chest area.
Then tighten the shoulder harnesses on both sides equally, so that the child is safely
fastened by the belts. The upper fastening point of the shoulder harness can be
moved upwards on the vertical straps, allowing adjustment to the height of your
child.
Fasten the lap belt!
