Placing the child into the seat
1.
While pressing the button of the central adjuster, pull the shoulder belts
away from the seat with a flat hand. Make sure to pull the belts evenly
so that they stay at the same length. Do not pull on the shoulder pads, as
they are fixed and cannot move. (20)
2.
Open the harness buckle.
3.
To keep the straps out of the way, place the shoulder pads onto the
magnets on each side of the seat shell. (21)
4.
Place your child into the seat and adjust the position of the shoulder belts
and headrest if needed - see section "Adjusting to the growing child".
5.
Place the shoulder belts over the child's shoulders and close the buckle:
CLICK! (22)
6.
Pull the central adjuster strap straight away from the seat to tighten the
harness. Make sure to tighten the harness extremely well, so that you
can no longer make a horizontal fold in the belts. When you tighten the
harness, make sure that the child is positioned well against the backrest.

Adjusting the seat to the growing child
Shoulder belt/headrest height
•
The height of the shoulder belts and the headrest can be adjusted by
pulling the headrest handle upwards at the back of the headrest and
moving the headrest up or down. To be able to do so, the harness buckle
has to be opened and the straps have to be pulled out. (24)
•
To find the right height for your child, move the headrest all the way up,
place your child into the seat, and then move the headrest downwards
until it sits directly on your child's shoulders.
•
Important for use on the front seat: you should always have a minimum
distance of 5 cm between the car's front shield and the top of the child's
head or headrest, whichever is higher. If your car does not enable this for
the highest headrest positions, you need to move the seat to the back seat
instead.
Recline angle
•
The recline angle can be adjusted to how it is comfortable for your child.
To do so, access the recline handle at the underside of the seat shell. (25)
Leg space
•
You can decide with how much leg space you want to install the seat by
adjusting the front brace position. This needs to be done before installing
