ATTENTION!
WARNING! THE INSTALLATION OF THIS CHILD SEAT IS ONLY
POSSIBLE USING THE HUB BASE. NEVER TRY TO INSTALL THE
SEAT WITHOUT ITS BASE OR IN A WAY DIFFERENT FROM THAT
DESCRIBED IN THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE FORWARD FACING BEFORE THE

FR 04GB 04
DO NOT use this child car seat without the covers provided. Please
note that the cover constitutes an integral part of the restraint
performance and it cannot be replaced by any other that is not
recommended by the manufacturer as this can affect the safety
level of the child car seat.
Please protect the car seat from being exposed to direct sunlight as
excessive heat can cause injury to your child’s skin.
Make sure there is no heavy or pointed object nearby that could
harm your child in the event of an accident.
Keep the child car seat away from corrosive liquids, paints or
solvents that may damage its integrity.
Any child car seat must always be replaced after an accident, even
if modest. An accident can cause structural damages, although not
visible, which can compromise the protective efficacy of the child
car seat in the event of another accident.
Correctly install the car seat using the instruction manual and make
sure that no part is trapped in any possible movement of the child
car seat, the vehicle seat or the vehicle door during its daily use.
DO NOT modify or add anything to the product without the approval
of the competent authorities or the manufacturer as this will void the
warranty and may compromise safety and performance.
Always ensure that the child restraint system is securely fastened
even when it is not occupied. A loose or unfixed child car seat can
cause injury to the vehicle passengers in the event of a collision.
Please ensure that any straps restraining the child are adjusted to the
child’s body and the support leg is in contact with the vehicle floor.
Any straps should not be twisted.
Always ensure that the lap strap is worn low down, so that the pelvis is
firmly engaged, shall be stressed.
Any luggage or other objects liable to cause injuries in the event of a
collision must be properly secured.
NEVER leave your child alone or unattended in the child car seat.
Dry all metal parts after any contact with water to avoid rust
formation.
The illustrations in this manual are considered descriptive and may
differ slightly from your seat model.
Please ensure your product is purchased through an appropriate
sales channel. The manufacturer does not guarantee the quality of
second-hand products.

FR 06GB 06
5) Once the ISOFIX connectors are fixed, press the ISOFIX extension

backrest. Once this is achieved, stop pressing the ISOFIX extension
button (Fig. 4).

leg (6) in contact with the vehicle floor. Make sure the indicators on

7) Then the base is correctly installed.
3.1 Installation of the Mettro Child Car Seat on Hub Base
The Apramo®Mettro Child Car Seat can be used from 40 to 105 cm
/ ≤18 kg for your baby. This seat is safest when rearward-facing from
birth to 105 cm / ≤18 kg or from 76 to 105 cm / ≤18 kg forward-facing
(Fig. 8) . At Apramo, we recommend that your child is in rearward-
facing mode for as long as possible. To install the Mettro Child Car Seat
on the Hub Base, please follow the below steps.
1) To install the car seat on the Hub Base, make sure the base is
installed correctly as described in Part 2 of this manual.
2) To install the child car seat on the Hub Base, you can press the
rotation lever (5) and turn the rotation plate (3) of the base to the
position as shown in Fig.9. The seat release strap (4) must face
you. This will allow you to place the child in the child car seat more
comfortably.
3INSTALLATION OF THE METTRO CHILD
CAR SEAT
WARNING! ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE SEAT RELEASE STRAP (4) IS
AT THE SAME SIDE AS THE CHILD-FACING DIRECTION.
3) Place the car seat on the Hub Base by matching the rods with the
base locking guides (11). Gently press down to fix the car seat to the
base until a “click” is clearly heard. Shake the seat slightly to confirm
that it is correctly fixed.
4) Once the car seat is correctly installed on the base, press the
rotation lever (5) and secure the child car seat in the rearward-
facing direction or forward-facing direction.

FR 07GB 07
5) Make sure the rotation indicator (21) is green (Fig. 8), to confirm that
the seat is locked in its correct position (Fig. 8).
6) The Mettro Child Car Seat is now installed correctly. You can choose
either rearward-facing or forward-facing installation as long as the
child exceeds 76 cm in height.
3.2 Securing your child
The Apramo Hub System has a loading position (turn 90° to vehicle
door) to facilitate the installation of your child. To do this, please follow
the below steps methodically:
1) Turn the car seat to a loading position to facilitate the installation of
your child (Fig. 11).
2) Press the quick adjuster (17) and pulling the harness strap (15) (Fig.
15). Press the red button and open the harness buckle (16) (Fig. 14).
3) Place your child in the car seat. Pass the harness around the child’s
shoulder, close the harness buckle by joining the 2 tongues and
joining them together into the buckle body (Refer to Fig.14 in reverse
order). Remember not to place your child in thick clothes as this will
reduce the child’s level of safety in the event of an accident.
4) Adjust the headrest of the car seat by pulling the headrest
adjustment handle (13) that is located on the top and meantime
adjust the newborn insert (18) head part to the same position as the
headrest by adjusting the velcro but don’t move the body part. The
correct position of the head restraint is:when in rearward-facing direction,
the harness is horizontal to or a little bit below the top of your child’s
shoulder; when in forward-facing direction, the harness is horizontal to or
a little bit above the top of your child’s shoulder (Fig. 12) .
5) Adapt the harness by pulling on the adjustment strap (20) (Fig.16).
As a reference, the correct harness tension is considered if there is a
maximum of 1 cm between your child’s body and the harness.
6) Your child is now correctly secured.
7) Ensure that your child’s both arms and legs are inside the car seat.
By pressing the rotation lever (5) , you can turn the seat rearward-
facing or forward-facing (Fig. 8) . At Apramo, we recommend
travelling as long as possible rearward-facing.
8) Remember to leave as much space as possible between the child
car seat and the front vehicle seat, as well as in the left and right
sides of the child car seat. This will increase your child’s survival rate
in the event of a collision.

FR 08GB 08
WARNING! BELTS MUST NOT BE TWISTED. IF THIS DOES HAPPEN,
REMOVE YOUR CHILD AND MAKE SURE THE HARNESS IS NO
LONGER TWISTED BEFORE SECURING YOUR CHILD AGAIN.
3.4 Uninstall the Mettro Child Car Seat from Hub Base.
1) Press the rotation lever (5) and turn the child car seat to face the
vehicle door (Fig. 11).
2) Pull the seat release strap (4) and lift the child car seat (Fig. 13). The
car seat is now released from the base.
3.3 Safe removal of your child
1) Place the car seat in the loading position (Fig. 11).
2) Loosen the harness belts by pressing the quick adjuster (17) and
gently pulling on the pectoral straps, just above the buckle (Fig. 15).
3) Open the buckle, and then remove your child (Fig. 14).
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OPEN THE BUCKLE BEFORE LOOSENING
THE HARNESS. THIS COULD PREVENT THE CHILD FROM
BREATHING NORMALLY.
USE OF THE NEWBORN INSERT
The newborn insert must be used for better protection and comfort for
newborn babies. It must be removed when the child is over 87 cm.
4
IMPORTANT: THE HEAD PART OF THE NEWBORN INSERT MUST
BE ADJUSTED ALONG WITH THE HEADREST.
5
The Mettro Child Car Seat can recline in 4 different positions.
To recline, press the reclining lever (19) as shown in Fig.10 and move
the car seat until the desired reclining position is obtained.

REMOVAL OF THE HUB BASE
6
To uninstall the base, follow the reverse steps to the installation of the
base (Fig. 6).
Retract the support leg by pressing the support leg adjustment
button (7) (Fig. 5).
Press the ISOFIX extension button (2) and pull the base towards you.
To release the connectors from the anchor points, press the ISOFIX
release button 9A and meanwhile pull the button 9B towards you.
Press the ISOFIX extension button (2), and retract the ISOFIX
connectors (1) into the base so that they are protected for storage or
transportation of the base.
Turn the support leg to the leg storage position (Fig. 2). The base can
now be transported (6).
Please ensure that the car seat has been locked in one position and
is not located in the middle of two reclining positions.
We advise that the reclining position should be progressive with the
growth of your child. From maximum reclining for newborn, to the
least reclining position for children approx. 100 cm high
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
7
7.1 Maintenance of the 5-point harness buckle
A buckle failure can cause injuries. DO NOT lubricate or grease any part
of the 5-point harness buckle of the child car seat. The malfunction
of the harness buckle is usually caused by an accumulation of debris
such as food crumbs or other small particles.
Some signs of a malfunction include:

FR 10GB 10
The two tongues are released very slow when the red button is
pressed.
The two tongues do not engage in the buckle’s body and are
ejected when you try to insert them in.
The tongues are inserted into the buckle’s body, but without the ‘click’
sound signal.
7.3 How to remove the car seat covers
1) Adjust the headrest in the highest position.
2) Remove the headrest cover.
3) Remove the remaining covers from the car seat.
WARNING! DO NOT USE THE CHILD CAR SEAT WITHOUT THE
COVERS OR WITH COVERS OTHER THAN THE ORIGINAL. A
DIFFERENT COVER COULD REDUCE THE SAFETY LEVEL, IN THE
EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT.
7.2 Cleaning the car seat covers
The car seat covers are removable and washable. Please carefully
refer to the washing label, sewn internally in the cover.
Normally, a rinse with warm running water is enough to solve the
problem. If not, contact the seller or the manufacturer immediately.
The two tongues are inserted with difficulty and the buckle’s body
offers a certain resistance.
The buckle needs a lot of force to open.
WARNING! ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THE COVERS AND
HARNESS STRAPS OF THE CAR SEAT ARE INSTALLED CORRECTLY.
IN CASE OF DOUBT, CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER OR
DISTRIBUTOR FOR ADVICE.
7.4 How to install the car seat covers
1) Repeat the previous steps in reverse order.
2) Carefully insert the outer edge of the cover along its entire perimeter,
using, if necessary, the tool provided.
