EXI0203_GBA_Tobi_I_BW:--
A. Malfunction to the belt buckle
• When opening the belt buckle, the buckle sections are released slowly.
• The belt buckle can only be opened with considerable force.
• It is difficult to click the buckle sections into the buckle (too much resistance).
• The buckle will no longer close, the buckle sections will not go together.
• There is no "click" sound when closing the buckle.
B. Solving any problems
• Check the buckle for any dirt and if necessary clean by knocking the dirt out, rinsing, blowing clean or
vacuuming with a vacuum cleaner, for example.
• NOTE! Never use lubricants!
If you are unable to close the belt buckle or if you are unsure whether you have solved the problem correctly,
contact your retailer or importer immediately (see back of instruction manual). Under no circumstances
should the Maxi-Cosi Tobi be used.

5. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Always pay attention to the following...
• Always use the seat, even on short trips close to home, as this is when most accidents occur.
• Only use the Maxi-Cosi Tobi in a car and not at home. Car seats are not designed for home use.
• The Maxi-Cosi Tobi may be used in the front seat and in the back seat. Even if the car is equipped with an
airbag! However, we recommend installing it on the back seat. If this is not possible, make sure that, if
installing on a front seat equipped with an airbag, the seat is in the rearmost position. See the car manual,
as more and more cars have the possibility to easily switch off the airbag.
• The seat must always be secured with the seat belt, even when not in use. A loose seat could injure other
passengers in an emergency stop.
• Make sure that the Maxi-Cosi Tobi is not jammed or wedged by heavy luggage, adjustable seats or closing doors.
• Never use the Maxi-Cosi Tobi without the cover. Do not replace the cover by a cover other than the original
as the cover forms part of the total safety of the seat.
• Always cover up the Maxi-Cosi Tobi when the car is parked in the full sun; plastic and metal parts may
become extremely hot, this can cause burns and may discolour the cover unnecessarily.
• To avoid damage to the fabric, do not remove the logos, etc. on the cover.
• Make sure that there is no baggage or other loose objects (for example on the rear shelf) in the car.
In an emergency stop or crash these become dangerous projectiles!
• When making long journeys, make sure to take frequent breaks in order to give your child some room to move.
• Never leave your child alone in the car unattended.
• Keep the user instructions for future reference in the appropriate place at the back of the Maxi-Cosi Tobi.
• Never use second-hand products! You never know what may have happened with these. The safety of the
seat can only be guaranteed by the manufacturer if it is used by its first owner.
• The user should not make any modifications to the car seat or the belts. Also labels or warnings, etc. that
form part of the seat should not be removed in any circumstances!
• Always replace the Maxi-Cosi Tobi after an accident, as the seat may become unsafe due to damage that is
not readily apparent.
• The manufacturer knows that car seats may cause impressions in car upholstery or car seat belts. These
cannot be avoided, since the safety standards demand powerful and firm fastening methods. That is why
the manufacturer cannot be held liable for any damage as a result of these.
And of course ...
• Always set a good example and wear your own safety belts!
