Read these instructions carefully before fitting your car seat. Remember, an
incorrect installation could be dangerous.
The correct use and maintenance of your car seat will ensure it gives
long and trouble free use. When somebody else is using your car
seat, ensure they also know how to use it, especially the correct way
to adjust and fit it. The safety of your child is your responsibility.
Keep these instructions in a safe place, preferably with the car seat or in
the vehicle so that you can find them for future use.
This car seat has been tested and approved to comply with the latest
European Standards for Group 0+ & 1. For use rearward facing Group 0+
new born – 13kg (approximately birth – 12 months) Forward facing Group
1, 9 – 18kg (approximately 9months – 4 years).
The car seat should NOT be fitted in a passenger seat of a vehicle that has
an air bag fitted. (SRS)
NEVER leave your child unattended in the car seat.
Do not make any alterations or additions to the car seat.
Do not use the car seat without the cover.
The seat cover should be replaced with one recommended by Mamas &
Papas, because the cover constitutes an integral part of the car seat's
performance.
Ensure that once the car seat is fitted that no parts of the seat or the
vehicle's seat belt can become trapped by a folding seat or the vehicle's
door.
Check every time you use the car seat that the vehicle's safety belt is tight
and the car seat is held firmly in place.
Check every time you use the car seat that the vehicle's safety belt has not
become twisted.
2. Safety warning

Car interiors can become very hot when standing in direct sunlight – it is
therefore recommended that the car seat is covered by a towel when not in
use. This prevents the car seat and its metal parts becoming hot and burning
the child.
Check that luggage or other heavy or sharp objects are secured in the car.
Loose objects are liable to cause injury in the event of an accident or sudden
braking.
Do not allow the seat to be in contact with corrosive substances.
When travelling with other passengers using both the front and the rear seats,
the lighter occupant should travel in the rear of the vehicle and the heavier
occupant in the front passenger seat.
When the car seat is left in the vehicle without the child in it, always ensure it is
correctly fitted using the vehicle's safety belt to prevent it from being thrown
about in an accident.
The car seat should be replaced after an impact or accident.
Store this car seat in a safe place when it is not being used. Avoid placing
heavy objects on top of it.
