Instruction Manual
Rear-facing 9-25 kg with vehicle seat belt and tethers
Read this instruction manual carefully before installing the Move child restraint. If in doubt, contact
your retailer who can demonstrate a correct installation. An incorrect installation could endanger
your child.
Do not use a child restraint in a seating position where an active airbag is fitted. If you still wish to
install the Move in this location the airbag must be disconnected at an authorised service centre.
Some vehicles may be equipped with a switch which allows you to manually switch the airbag o. It
is important to always check if the vehicle’s indicator light shows that the airbag is turned o.
Extensive research has shown that the risk of serious injury or worse is five times greater for a young
child when in a forward facing restraint compared to a rearward-facing restraint. In Move your child
can travel rearward-facing up to 25kg.
Always use the support leg when installing the Move seat. The support leg is a very important safety
feature designed to maximise your child’s safety in an accident.
Should you have an accident, no matter how small, your child restraint should be replaced. It may
have damage that is undetectable and could seriously jeopardize your child’s safety. For this reason
Axkid do not recommend purchasing second hand child restraints.
Never leave your child unattended in the car.
Ensure any luggage or loose objects are secured in your vehicle as they may cause injuries to
passengers in the event of a collision.
Store this instruction manual in the designated pocket (O) on the car seat.
Read this instruction manual before installing the Move child restraint in your vehicle. For
more information and installation videos visit www.axkid.com.
Thank you for choosing an Axkid child seat. Our team has over 30 years combined experience within
child safety, and we have done our utmost to make the Move child seat as safe as possible. The Move child
restraint is approved according to ECE R44/04, the latest European standards for child safety. To maximise
your child’s safety it is important that you keep the following in mind;

Never use this child seat in a car that is not equipped with an
ECE Reg 16 approved three-point belt.
Before you install the child restraint make sure that the headrest is at the correct height for your
child. The harness, when correctly installed, should be routed from the back of the seat to the
front and pass just above your child’s shoulders.
In order to adjust the height of the headrest and harness you will first need to detach the
harness. Press the harness adjuster button (E) and pull forward on the shoulder straps (not the
shoulder pads) to completely loosen the harness.
Open the zipper (P) on the back of the seat cover.
Unhook the shoulder straps from the yoke (S) at the back of the child restraint.
Unfasten the Velcro®and detach the shoulder pads (B) on the back of the seat.
Pull the shoulder pad straps and shoulder straps out from the seat.
Squeeze the plastic clip and gently pull the headrest free from the seat.
Reposition the headrest at one of the three heights that best suits your child. Push the bottom
of the headrest until the plastic clip locks in place.

The easiest way to lift the Move into the vehicle is with its back first. Place the child restraint in
the vehicle with the back of the restraint facing the front of the vehicle.
The heels (I) should be sitting over the edge of the vehicle seat. The indented vertical line (J) on
the heel should align vertically with the end of the vehicle’s seat. If installing in a small vehicle, or
if your child does not require extra leg room, you can instead place the heel upon the vehicle’s
seat this will also achieve a more reclined position.
Note: When installing Move in the front seat it is possible, but not crucial, for the back of the restraint
to have contact with the dashboard.
To adjust the angle of the child restraint, rotate block (G) into one of the two tilt positions. Always
choose the most upright position as possible, however your child must be able to hold their
head up on its own, and there should be enough recline to ensure your child’s head does not fall
forward when sleeping. The rule of thumb is that the older the child grows, the more upright the seat
can be installed. Please note that once the installation of the Move is complete, it will be somewhat
more reclined as it sinks into the vehicle’s seat from tightening seat belts and tether straps.
Positioning the child restraint

Never install a child restraint in a passenger seat
where an active airbag is fitted.
Feed the harness straps (i) through the shoulder pads (ii).
Thread the harness straps and shoulder pad straps through the holes in the headrest to the
back of the seat ensuring all straps are at the same height. Connect the two shoulder pad
straps using the Velcro®.
Reconnect the harness straps to the yoke.
IMPORTANT! Make sure the harness straps pass through the same hole height positions on
the headrest and the seat. IMPORTANT! Ensure the harness is routed between the seat and
the support leg. The harness MUST NOT pass over the support leg’s horizontal bar (i).
Make sure the height is correct by placing your child in the seat.
WARNING! Never use this child seat without the shoulder pads. The shoulder pads are an
important safety feature.

Open the belt lock-o clips (M) on both sides of the Move child restraint. Fully lengthen the seat
belt until the lap section of the belt is at least 70-80cm (27-32 inches) long. Feed the seat belt
through the seat belt slot (D), between the seat cover and seat body until the belt comes out
through the seat belt slot on the other side. If you prefer, you can instead feed the seat belt through the
seat belt slot (D), then over the top of the seat cover and then through the seat belt slot on the other
side.
Insert the seat belt tongue into the vehicle’s seat belt buckle. Pull the seat belt until all slack is
removed along the seat belt route. Secure both the lap and shoulder belt in the lock-o closest
to the vehicle’s seat belt buckle.
In the lock-o on the opposite side, only the lap belt should be secured.

Unclip the tether straps from the child restraint.
Press the grey button (N) and pull the loop end out to maximise the length of the strap.
To attach the tether straps to an anchor point, wrap the strap around the chosen anchor point
and pass the metal clip through the loop.
When installing the Move on a back seat, wrap the tether straps through either the rear of the
front seat rails (i), or the hinge of the front seat (ii).
When installing the Move in the front passenger seat, the tether straps should be wrapped
around the nearest suitable anchor point (i) that will allow the straps to be tightened fully.
Anchor points set further back (ii) can be used and if need be the straps can be crossed over
(iii) and even looped together (iv).
Reattach the metal clips to each side of the child restraint and pull the free ends of both tether
straps until you have tensioned them. Pull each strap once again as hard as possible to ensure
the child restraint is secured tightly.
Unfold thesupport leg(Q) outtoitsmaximumangle.Pressthelegextensionbutton(R)and extendthe

Note:Thesupport leg beltmay,but does notneed,tobefully tensioned.
It is important that you check that the support leg is at an angle over 10°from the back of the
seat. You could check this by ensuring that the support leg is further away from the seat than
the vertical line.

Now firmly pull the straps on both sides of the seat to make sure that your seat is fully secured.
If you have installed Move in the back seat you can now move the front seat to a comfortable position.
Note: The back of the child restraint may, but does not need to be in contact with the back of the front
seat.
29
Although optional we STRONGLY advise using the side impact pad where possible to add extra
protection from side collisions.
Locate the side impact pad connector (K) on the child seat nearest to the side of the vehicle (i.e.
closest to the door).
IMPORTANT: Ensure the two triangular arrows (i) on the side impact pad (H) point in the same
direction as the triangular arrow on the side impact pad connector (K).
Place the upper of the two oval openings on the underside of the side impact pad over the side
impact pad connector. Push the side impact pad against the side of the car seat and slide the side
impact pad upwards onto the side impact pad connector. You will feel a slight click as the side impact
pad locks in place.
To remove: Push the side impact pad downwards and remove.

WARNING: Never attempt to remove the child restraint whilst your child is still seated in it.
Open the belt lock-o clips (M) on both sides of the child restraint.
Release the vehicle’s seat belt buckle (i) and completely remove the seat belt from the child
restraint. Collapse the support leg (Q). Unhook the tether straps’ (L) from the child restraint and
remove the child restraint from the vehicle. Finally unwrap the tether straps from the vehicle’s anchor
points and then re-hook the straps on to the child restraint.

Care and maintenance
The seat cover can be removed and washed in a washing machine at 30º C on the “Gentle
Cycle” programme. Do not put the cover in a dryer as this can damage the cover and the
padding may separate from the fabric.
Visit www.axkid.com to find videos explaining how to remove and attach the cover.
Any plastic parts of Move can be cleaned with mild detergent and water. Do not use
aggressive chemicals containing solvents etc, as this can cause damage to the plastic and
compromise the safety of the child restraint.
All materials used in the Move child restraint are recyclable and should be recycled as per your
local legislation. Ask your local recycling centre for advice when recycling this product.
Do not make any modifications or alterations to the Move child restraint other than those
described in this instruction manual. Follow the instructions in this manual carefully. Any repairs
must be carried out by the manufacturer or agent.
If the seat cover needs replacing ensure only original products from Axkid are used. If other
products are used the Move’s safety system may be compromised and could lead to severe
injury or death in case of an accident.
All materials used have a very high UV-resistance rating. However, UV-light is very aggressive
and will ultimately lead to fading of the seat cover. This is not covered by our warranty as it is
considered normal wear and tear.
