Chicco Seat 4 Fix Mode D'emploi page 27

• Pay attention when fitting the child car seat
into the car in order to avoid the car seat or
car door, which may interfere with installa-
tion.
• No Car seat can guarantee your child's total
safety in case of accident, but the use of this
product reduces the risk of serious injuries or
death when installed correctly.
• The risk of serious injuries to the child increas-
es, not only in the case of accidents, but also
in other circumstances (i.e.: sudden braking,
etc.) if these instructions are not followed
carefully: always check that the child car seat
is secured correctly to the vehicle's seat.
• If the child car seat is damaged, deformed
or worn out, it must be replaced: it may no
longer meet the original safety standards.
• This product must not be modified in any
way unless the modification has been ap-
proved by the manufacturer.
• Do not fit any accessories, spare parts or
components not supplied or approved by
the manufacturer.
• Do not insert anything between the vehicle
seat and the child car seat, or between the
child car seat and the child, unless it is an
accessory approved by the manufacturer: in
case of accident, the child car seat may not
work properly.
• After an accident, even a minor one, the child
seat incurs damage, even if it is not visible to
the naked eye: It must therefore be replaced.
• Do not use second-hand child car seats: they
may have suffered structural damage that is
not visible to the naked eye, compromising
the safety of the product and the child
• Never leave the child unattended in the child
car seat for any reason.
• If the vehicle has been left in the sun, check
that the different parts of the child car seat
are not too hot before seating the child in it:
in this case, let the child car seat cool down
first before placing the child into it, in order
to avoid burns.
• The seat fabric must only be replaced with
another approved by the manufacturer as it
forms an integral part of the child car seat. To
ensure your child's safety, the child car seat
must never be used without the fabric cover.
• Check that the safety harness strap is not
twisted to avoid the strap or any parts of the
child car seat becoming trapped between
the car doors, or rubbing against cutting edg-
es. The Car Seat is no longer usable if the safe-
ty harness shows signs of cutting or fraying.
• 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 inclination adjust-
er handle completely inserted into the lower
part of the child car seat. An unsecured Car
seat may pose a hazard to the passengers in
case of accident or sudden braking.
• Do not transport loose, unsecured objects
or baggage on the back shelf of the vehicle:
they may injure the passengers in the case of
an accident or sudden breaking.
• Make sure that all folding or rotating car seats
are always firmly fastened in place, otherwise
they could be dangerous.
• Check that the vehicle car seat headrest does
not interfere with that of the child car seat: do
not push it forwards. If this is the case, remove
the headrest from the car seat on which the
child car seat is fitted, without resting it on
the luggage rack.
• Ensure that all the car passengers fasten their
vehicle seat belt for their own safety as dur-
ing the journey, they may injure the child in
the event of an accident or sudden braking
of the car.
• On long distance journeys, make frequent
stops. Children get tired easily. Do not re-
move the child from the child car seat while
travelling. If your child needs attention, find a
safe place and stop.

appropriate use of the product.
