Instructions for use
Never leave a child unsupervised in the seat, either in the car or outside of the car.
Do not use the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix in a place where a frontal airbag is installed as this can be dangerous.
This does not apply to side airbags.
The Maxi-Cosi EasyFix may be used either on the passenger seat or on the back seat, but it should always
face backwards. Lock the rear seats that fold down.
The Maxi-Cosi EasyFix has been approved according to the most recent guidelines of the ECE R 44/04, the
European standard for car safety seats, and can be used in combination with the Maxi-Cosi CabrioFix,
suitable for children from birth to approximately 12 months (group 0+: 0 to 13 kg).
* The use of the support leg and / or Isofix, which ensure optimum safety and easy installation, mean
that the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix is not suitable for all types of cars. The Maxi-Cosi EasyFix is designated as
“semi-universal” and therefore suitable for installation in certain types of cars. See the enclosed car
fitting list (see Section 9: Car fitting list).

Instructions for use
Only use the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix on a forward-facing seat equipped with Isofix anchor points. Read the car
manufacturer’s handbook before use.
Correct attachment to the Isofix anchor points is essential for the safety of your child. Also see the yellow
outlined sticker on the side of the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix. Never use a different installation method than the
one described here!
A. Preparing the Isofix
• Place the enclosed Isofix guides* (1) on both Isofix anchor points between the seat and the seat
back (2).
* Isofix guides make it easier to install using the Isofix system and prevent damage to the upholstery.
For cars with fold-down seat backs, the Isofix guides must be removed before folding down the seat.
Functional failures usually occur because the Isofix guides are dirty (dust, dirt, food particles, etc.).
This can be avoided by frequently checking the Isofix guides for dirt and cleaning them if necessary.
B. Installing with Isofix
• IMPORTANT! Secure any fold-down seats.
• IMPORTANT! Make sure the support leg is fully folded out (3,1) and that the indicator on the central
button is red (3,2).
• Press the central button on the support leg (4,1) and push the support leg backward as far as
possible (4,2).
• The Isofix connectors are now extended as far as possible (5) and the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix is ready to be installed.
• Place the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix on the seat of the car.
• Line up the Isofix connectors with the Isofix guides (6).
• Click both Isofix connectors into the Isofix anchor points (7).
• IMPORTANT! Make sure that both Isofix connectors are securely attached to thei Isofix anchor points:
there should be two audible clicks.
• Check to make sure the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix is securely installed by pulling on the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix. The
indicator on the central button should now be green (8).
• Place both hands on the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix and push it back as far as possible until it is situated firmly
against the seat back (you’ll hear a ‘rattling’ sound) (9).
• Check again to make sure the seat is secure by pulling on the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix.

until it reaches the floor of the car (11,2).
• IMPORTANT! Make sure the indicator at the base of the support leg is green (12).
• In some cases the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix may not be fully supported by the car seat, but entirely by the support leg.
• Release the control button and “click” the support leg into the locked position.
• Check to make sure the support leg is securely locked and stays in position by trying to move it up or
down without pressing the control button.

• Both Isofix connectors are securely attached to the Isofix anchor points: the indicator on the central
button on the support leg should be green.

leg upwards (13,2).
• Disconnect the Isofix connectors by pressing the central button on the support leg (14). The indicator on
the central button on the support leg should be red. Considerable force may sometimes be needed in
orrder to release the buckle. If this is the case, try pushing the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix into the back of the

Instructions for use
3.2 Using a 3-point safety belt (blue marking on product) and support leg
If your car is not equipped with Isofix anchor points, you can install the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix using a 3-point
safety belt in combination with the support leg. To check whether your car is suitable for installation using
a 3-point safety belt and support leg, see Section 9: Car fitting list.
* Provided there is a 3-point safety belt in the middle position of the back seat and there is enough room
for properly installing the support leg (see Section 9: Car fitting list).
Only install the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix on a forward-facing seat fitted with an automatic 3-point safety belt
approved in accordance with ECE R16 or equivalent standard.
The proper threading of the seat belt is essential to your child’s safety. The seat belt must be threaded
along the blue markings on the Maxi-Cosi EasyFix. See the sticker outlined in blue on the topside of the
Maxi-Cosi EasyFix.
