How to Fit the Child Car Seat into the Car
and Place the Child into the Child Car Seat.
Warning! These instructions and diagrams are
for the installation of the child car seat onto
the right rear seat. To fi t the child car seat in
other positions, carry out the operations in the
same order.
1. Place the child car seat on the car seat, lean-
ing the backrest against the backrest of the
car's seat (diag. 6).
CAUTION! Check that the headrest of the car
seat does not interfere with the headrest of
the child car seat: it must not be pushed for-
ward (diag. 7). Should this happen, remove the
headrest of the car seat, on which the child car
seat will be fi tted to, and remember to replace
the headrest back onto the car seat, when the
child car seat is removed, so that the car seat
can be used once more by a passenger. .
WARNING! The rear part of the child car seat
must fi t perfectly to the car's seat (diag. 8).
2. Place the child into the child car seat, ensur-
ing that its back adheres correctly to the
backrest (diag. 9).
3. Check the height of the headrest and ad-
just if it is not correct: see the paragraph
"HOW TO ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF THE
HEADREST".
4. Check the width of the backrest, and adjust
it if necessary: see the paragraph "HOW TO
ADJUST THE WIDTH OF THE BACKREST".
5. Fasten the safety belt of the car, sliding the
horizontal part under the two armrests, in
the points highlighted in red, and the di-
agonal part under the armrest, located on
the side of the safety buckle (diag. 10).
6. Slide the diagonal part of the safety belt
through the red clamp (diag. 11).
7. Pull the diagonal part of the car seat belt
towards its retractor, ensuring that the
safety belt is well tensioned and that it
fi ts correctly to the child's abdomen and
legs. The safety belt must not be too tight!
(Diag. 12).
The child car seat is now fi tted correctly
(diag. 13).
WARNING! Check that the safety belt of the
car is correctly tensioned.
WARNING! Check that the safety belt of the
car is not twisted (diag. 14).
WARNING! Check that the diagonal belt is fas-
tened correctly on the child's shoulder (diag.
15), and that it does not exercise pressure on
its neck; if necessary, lower the headrest.
WARNING! Check that the car seat safety
belt adjuster is either in a backward position
with respect to the backrest of the car seat (or
at least aligned to it)(see diag. 5).
