GENERAL INFORMATION
I.
Spread-squat position: By opening and closing the lower zipper, the seat width can be adjusted. Very small
children will already sit comfortably in the required "spread-squat position" without any adjustments to the
seat area. For older children, the seat area can be adjusted by opening the zipper over the entire length.
Children from approx. 10 months of age should sit in the narrowest position, thus allowing for more leg room
and freedom of movement.
IMPORTANT! IT IS MORE IMPORTANT THAT THE CHILD IS SITTING IN A SQUATTING POSITION RATHER
THAN A SPREADING POSITION.
II. Height adjustment: The waist belt has the function of a height adjustment system. (a) To carry smaller
children, the belt should be placed around the waist, allowing the child to sit at a higher position. (b) For larger
children the belt should be placed around the hips. The optimum sitting position is reached when the carrying
person can touch the child´s head with the lips and should be adjusted accordingly.
III. Connector belt: (a) For ease of use, the connector belt on the shoulder straps can be adjusted in both length
and height, (b) allowing it to be closed from behind the neck or behind the back.
IV. Width adjustment: Tighten the shoulder straps to the point that it is comfortable for yourself and your baby.
The adjustment of the width will also regulate the support of your child's back. Excess length from the straps
can be folded and placed in the loops provided on the shoulder straps.
PLEASE SEE TO IT THAT YOUR CHILD FORMS A SLIGHTLY ROUNDED BACK WHILE SITTING IN THE
CARRIER. HENCE DO NOT FASTEN THE SHOULDER STRAPS TOO TIGHTLY.
V. The bib: The bib can be removed and regularly washed. Please follow the washing instructions.
The Headrest can be used in 3 different ways
VI. Full support: You can adjust the width of the head support with the upper zipper. With the zipper all
the way closed, you will support your baby´s head in the sleeping position. The space of the headrest
can be individually adjusted to ensure a comfortable position for the baby. See picture II b.
VII. Headrest shortened: Should your child´s head no longer need supporting, the head rest can simply
be folded outwards. This position also allows the vision fi eld of your child to expand.
VIII. Inwards Mobility Seat: (a) Once your baby is approx. 6 months of age, the headrest can be
completely folded inward, so that the back is completely free and your child has more moving space.
(b) Unfasten the buckles for the head rest and fold it inwards. (c) Fasten the ends of the headrest to
the strap loops by using the snap buttons.
FORWARD CARRYING
1. Position the waist belt around your waist/hips, close the buckle and adjust the length until it sits tightly.
Please assure that the male part of the buckle is always fed through the elastic safety loop before closing the
buckle.
2. (a) Now lift your baby up to your chest and place it into the carrier. Bend the legs of your baby in such a
manner, that it is comfortable for your child and then wrap the carrier around the baby's back. (b) Please
make sure that the safety loops are closed if the child weighs under 7 kg.
3. (a) Put your arms through the shoulder straps and (b) fasten the straps together with the sternum strap
behind your back.
4. Now lead the arms of your baby through the arm openings, if necessary open the buckles of the headrest on
both sides.
FORWARD FACING SITTING POSITION
DUE TO POSSIBLE OVERSTIMULATION, WE ONLY RECOMMEND THE FORWARD CARRYING POSITION
FOR CHILDREN SIX MONTHS AND OLDER. FOR LONGER DISTANCES WE RECOMMEND TO CARRY
YOUR CHILD IN THE FORWARD OR THE BACK CARRYING POSITION.
5. Make sure that the sitting area is adjusted in the narrowest position, i.e. that the lower zipper is completely
closed. Keep the head support bent in the outward position and fasten it to the buckles of the headrest.
Follow points 1-4 as listed above.
BACK CARRYING POSITION
This carrying position should only be used when your baby is able to safely hold its own head. Fold the
headrest away towards the inner side of the carrier (see points VIII b and VIII c).
6. Position the waist belt around your waist/hips so that the carrier body is placed on your back, close the buckle
and adjust the length until it sits tightly. Please assure that the male part of the buckle is always fed through
the elastic safety loop before closing the buckle. Slip into the left shoulder strap.
