EN_English In order to prevent an unsuitable (i.e. non Top
Tether) ancher being used, the vehicle's TT hook is
generally marked by a label bearing the following logo:
For more information and greater safety, consult your
vehicle's instruction and maintenance booklet. Ensure
the car seat is securely fastened using the Top Tether.
This not only guarantees utmost safety in the event
of collision, but also maximum child stability during
normal use. Please remember that if necessary Vito
TT can also be fastened using the standard three-
point seatbelts available by law on any vehicle.
IMPORTANT: TOP TETHER
Read carefully for proper use of your new Mamas
& Papas car seat: Vito TT.
Vito TT is the latest Peg Perego car seat for
children weighing 9-18 kg. It is type approved
under European standard ECE R44/04.
Vito TT uses the ISOFIX attachment system with Top
Tether, in compliance with the most up-to date European
Directives, as a guarantee of utmost safety and reliability.
All recently produced vehicles are equipped by law both
with the ISOFIX anchor, placed where the backrest meets
the seat, and with the TOP TETHER hook. This is normally
located on the shelf behind the rear seat in minivan vehicles
(photo A), behind the rear seat in hatchbacks (photo
B), or in the trunk in SUVs / off-road vehicles (photo C):

facing vehicle seats.
• We recommend that you always use the rear seat
on the opposite side to the driver’s seat.
• When fitted on the vehicle’s front seat, the car seat
should be positioned as far as possible from the
dashboard.
• The item is given a serial number.
• If you have any difficulty fitting Vito TT in your
vehicle, lift up or remove the vehicle’s headrests.
• Do not use without the Top Tether. The Top Tether
is essential in order to guarantee complete safety.
WARNING
• Read the instructions carefully before use and keep
them in the holder provided for future reference.
Failure to closely follow the car seat installation
instructions will put your child at risk.
• The assembly and installation of Vito TT must be
conducted by adults. The assembly and installation
procedures must be carried out without the child in
the car seat.
• When travelling in the vehicle, never hold the child in
your arms and never put him/her anywhere but in the
car seat. In the event of sudden braking, even at low
speeds, the child might easily be flung forward.
• Avoid inserting fingers into the mechanisms.
• When travelling take special care to make sure that
luggage or other objects do not injure the child in the
car seat in the case of accidents.
• Do not use installation methods different from those
indicated. This would result in the risk of detachment
from the seat.
• Ensure that the vehicle’s three-point seatbelt fixing the
car seat is always taut and not twisted. It should be
replaced in the case of heavy stress as a result of an
accident.
• Never leave the child unattended in the car seat: watch
over him/her even when he/she is sleeping.
• Never remove the child from the car seat while the
vehicle is in motion.

20
• Make sure that the car seat is not blocked by a mobile
part of the vehicle seat or by a door.
• Adjust the height and tension of the shoulder straps
ensuring that they are snug to the child’s body without
constricting him/her too much. Check that the harness
is not twisted and that the child does not release it.
• This car seat is not intended for prolonged periods of
sleeping.
• Do not leave the car seat in the vehicle when exposed
to the sun. Some parts might heat up and be harmful
to the delicate skin of the child - check before placing
the child in the seat.
• Do not use the car seat without its fabric cover; this
must not be replaced with one not approved by the
manufacturer since it is an integral part of the car seat
and the safety system.
• Do not use the car seat without the protective shoulder
pads as they are an integral part of the car seat and the
safety system.
• If in doubt refer to the manufacturer or retailer of the
car seat.
• Do not remove the adhesive and stitched labels since
this might make the product non compliant with legal
requirements.
• Do not use the car seat if it has signs of breakage
or missing parts, is second hand, or if it has been
subjected to violent stress in an accident, because it
might have suffered extremely dangerous structural
damage.
• Do not modify the product.
• For any repairs, replacement parts and information
about the product, contact the after-sales assistance
service. Contact information is provided on the last
page of this manual.
• The car seat should always be secured in the vehicle,
even when the child is not present. In the event of
sudden braking, it could injure the passengers.
• Do not use this car seat after five years from the date
of production indicated on the structure. The natural
ageing of the materials may mean that it is no longer
compliant with standards.
• Do not use accessories not approved by the
manufacturer or by the competent authorities.
Instructions for use
UNIVERSAL CATEGORY - Belted
Fastening with seatbelts
1• Place the Vito TT car seat in a forward-facing position,

the back of the car seat, it is necessary to recline the
seat as far as possible by operating the handle, as
shown in the figure.
3• Pass the vehicle’s seatbelt between the frame and the
body of the car seat.
4• The lap strap must pass through the lower opening
marked in red. Fasten the seatbelt, ensuring that it
clicks into place.
5• Check that the lap strap has passed through the lower
openings marked in red and tighten it.
6• Bring the car seat back to the upright position by
pulling the handle below the seat (Fig. a) and pushing
the car seat as shown in the figure (Fig. b).
7• To finish securing the car seat to the vehicle, use the
Steady Fix device: open the hook and pass the diagonal
strap through it, ensuring that it is taut and not twisted
(Fig. a). Close the tongue (Fig. b).
8• IMPORTANT: Take hold of the seatbelt and pull
it firmly upwards to fit the Vito TT more closely to
the seat of the vehicle (Fig. c).
Once the procedure is complete, it is possible to recline
the car seat to the desired position (see point 2).
