IMPORTANT
• All Bébé Confort products have been carefully designed
and tested for your baby’s safety and comfort. Use only
accessories sold or approved by Bébé Confort.
• Using other accessories may prove to be dangerous.
• Please read these instructions carefully and make yourself
familiar with the child seat before using it.
• Always keep the instructions for future reference; there is a
storage pocket specifically provided on the child seat.
UNIVERSAL ISOFIX SYSTEM:
• Group 1 car seat (children from 9 to 18 Kg) - ISOFIX
classification B1 - ISOFIX UNIVERSAL approved.
• To use the ISOFIX UNIVERSAL fixing system, it is
ESSENTIAL to read the car handbook, before installing the
child car seat.
• It will show you which points are compatible with the
classification of the ISOFIX UNIVERSAL approved child
car seat.
• IMPORTANT: never use both the ISOFIX fixing system and
the car seat-belt to install the child car seat
• IMPORTANT: when using ISOFIX it is not enough to
connect just the lower anchorage latches to the vehicle. It
is essential to fix the “Top Tether” to the upper anchorage
provided by the vehicle manufacturer.
UNIVERSAL SYSTEM WITH A 3 POINT SEAT-BELT:
• IMPORTANT: never use both the ISOFIX fixing system
and the car seat-belt to install the child car seat.
• When the car seat is used in combination with an adult
safety belt, It can be installed only in the vehicles listed,
equipped with 3 point/static/inertia reel safety-belts that
conform to EEC Regulation N° 16 or other equivalent
standards.
• After putting the child in the car seat, ensure that the car
seat-belt is sufficiently taut by pulling the belt. Ensure also
that the belt does not become twisted
THE CHILD:
• Never leave a child unsupervised.
• Even a gentle impact on a vehicle can turn a child into a
projectile.
• For your own safety and that of your child, always put the
child in the child car seat, however short your journey may be.
• Ensure that the straps under the stomach lie as low as
possible, to properly support the pelvis.
• The temperature inside a vehicle may become very high,
particularly after a long period of exposure to the sun. It
is strongly recommended, under such conditions, to cover
the seat of the car with a piece of material or something
equivalent to prevent the harness fixings, and in particular
the metal parts, from becoming hot and burning the child.
OTHER INSTRUCTIONS:
• The child car seat is to be installed facing forwards. Never
install this child car seat facing backwards.
• The manufacturer’s liability is limited to what is covered
under the European Regulation (R44). This approval does
not remove the necessity for care and respect for the
Highway Code.
• This child restraint is effective only if the instructions for
use are respected.
• Always fasten the child restraint even when the child is not
sitting in it.
• The user must always check that any luggage and other
objects likely to cause injury to the occupant of the car seat
in the case of impact are properly secured.
• Never place heavy objects on the rear parcel shelf, to avoid
the danger of projectiles in the event of an accident.
• The rigid parts and the plastic sections of a child restraint
device should be positioned and installed in such a way
that they cannot, under normal conditions of use of the
vehicle, become trapped under a moving seat or in the
vehicle door.
• Always check that no part of the seat or the harness is
trapped under a seat or in the vehicle door.
• It is essential that the car seat be replaced after an
accident.
• Never modify the construction or the materials of the car
seat and its straps without consulting the manufacturer.
• Do not use the child restraint device without the cover.
Do not replace the seat cover with a cover other than that
recommended by the manufacturer, because it will have a
direct effect on the functioning of the child restraint.
• If in any doubt about the correct installation or use of the
system, the user is advised to contact the distributor or the
manufacturer of the child restraining device system.
