Installation Instructions
Peg Perego Primo Viaggio Sip 30•30
is certified for use with or without
the base. Use of the base is highly
recommended because it makes
installation easier and therefore safer.
It is also certified for use on aircraft with
or without the base.

13
I USING THE LUAS
SYSTEM. If your car
has “lower universal
anchorage systems
(LUAS)”, you can install
the child car seat using the
LUAS system instructions on page
14. The anchor is a bar located where
the seat back meets the seat bottom
(slide your hand down between the
seat back and seat bottom to locate
this bar).
Important! Also read your vehicle
manual for locating lower anchors
and instructions on using the LUAS
system.
II USING THE STANDARD LAP BELT/
SHOULDER STRAP. If your car does
not have universal lower anchors,
install the child car seat using the
instructions for lap/shoulder belt
straps on page 17.
When using Primo Viaggio Sip 30•30 with its base, first you install the base,
and then you install the car seat on the base.
Important! Read your vehicle manual for instructions on where to best install an
child car seat in your vehicle.
There are two ways to install the base:
Installing the Base

14
Install the base with your vehicle parked
on level ground.
1• Take the car seat off the base by
moving the handle to the upright
position. Place your hand on the top
of the seat back and pull up on the
handle with your fingers.
Note: Pulling near the center of the
handle provides the easiest release.
2• Position the base rear facing in the
back seat of your vehicle. Check the
level indicator on the side of the
base to make sure that the pointer
is in the green area. If it is not, turn
the knob left or right until it is in the
correct position.

3• Remove the two LUAS latches from
their storage housings. The latches
are on the sides of the base. First
loosen the LUAS strap by pressing on
the gray button and pulling the strap
as shown. Then press the red button
on top of the latch and pull the latch
out of its housing. Repeat on other
side.
4• Push each latch onto the anchor bar
located between your vehicle seat
back and seat bottom. Press until
you hear the click.

16
5• Make sure that the LUAS strap is
threaded flat against the base.
6• Tighten the base against the seat
by pulling the free end of the LUAS
strap. Press down on the base with
your body weight and tighten
further. Check the level indicator. If
the pointer has moved outside of the
green area, turn the knob until the
pointer is back within the green area.
You may need to loosen the strap
slightly to do this. Push and pull on
the base. If you can move it more
than 2,5 cm (1 inch), tighten the belt
further.
• Now that you have installed the
base, go to page 23.

17
Important! Not all seat belts work
the same way. To make sure that the
child car seat is properly installed
using your seat belts, read your vehicle
owner’s manual. It will suggest proper
placement of an child car seat in your
particular vehicle.
Park your vehicle on level ground.
1• Take the car seat off the base by
moving the handle to the upright
position. Place your hand on the top
of the seat back and pull up on the
handle with your fingers.
Note: Pulling near the center of the
handle provides the easiest release.
2• Position the base rear facing in the
back seat of your vehicle. Check the
level indicator on the side of the
base to make sure that the pointer
is in the green area. If it is not, turn
the knob left or right until it is in the
correct position.
II - How to Install the Base Using Your VEHICLE SEAT BELT

18
3• Thread the lap belt through the slots
on the base and lock the latch plate
into the buckle as shown.
4• Pull the strap to tighten the seat
belt. Press down on the base with
your body weight and pull the strap
tighter. Then push and pull on the
base. If you can move the base more
than 2,5 cm (1 inch), tighten the belt
further. Once the base is tight, check
the level indicator. If the pointer has
moved outside of the green area,
turn the knob until the pointer is
back within the green area. You may
need to loosen the strap slightly to
do this.
Warning! If you cannot get the belt
tight enough, refer to your vehicle
manual for instructions on how to
secure the base using the type of seat
belt in your vehicle. Your baby is not
safe riding in a loose car seat.

19
Installing the Base with Different Types of Seat Belts
Primo Viaggio Sip 30•30 is designed for
use with lap or lap/shoulder seat belts.
Four of the most common types are
listed below. Please read your vehicle
manual for instructions on installing an
child car seat using your vehicle seat
belts.
I Lap/Shoulder belt with
Switchable Locking Retractor
If your vehicle has Switchable
Locking Retractor lap/shoulder belts,
pull the shoulder strap all the way
out, let it retract several inches, then
pull it out again. It should lock in
place to properly secure the base.
II Lap/Shoulder belt with
Emergency Locking Retractor
(ELR) and free sliding latch plate
This type of seat belt will only lock
in an emergency, so you must use

20
the locking clip (stored on child seat
base) to properly secure this type of
seat belt (see page 21).
III Lap/shoulder belt with a locking
latch plate
If you have a lap/shoulder belt with
a locking latch plate and the belt
comes loose after buckling, unbuckle
it, flip it over, and re-buckle. This will
usually keep the seat belt locked
in place. If not, read your vehicle
manual for specific instructions.
IV Different Types of Lap Belts
Lap belts with Emergency Locking
Retractors (ELR), Automatic Locking
Retractors (ALR), and Switching
Locking Retractors (SLR) look as
shown. Consult your vehicle owner's
manual to determine which style you
have. Lap belts with locking latch
plates look as shown.
V Lap belt only with an Emergency
Locking Retractor
If you have a lap belt (without
shoulder strap) that locks only in an
emergency (ELR), do not use it to
secure the Primo Viaggio Sip 30•30
car seat. Please consult a certified
child Passenger Safety Technician for
other installation options.
