installed, since the airbag may harm the child upon impact. It is
advisable to use the child car seat on a rear car seat only, even if your
local trac regulations allow fitting on such a front seat.
Please consult your local trac regulations, as they may vary in
dierent countries. Check your car’s owner manual for information on
the possibility of fitting the child car seat on a front seat. Do not fit the
child car seat on a car seat in front of which an airbag is installed,

small items which may have fallen into the buckle.

iron, machine-wash, or dry the child car seat covers with a
roller-drier, as these methods will damage the child car
seat covers and require a replacement..
Appropriate adjustment of the seat belts is a key factor in
protecting your child. Keep a finger-width space between
your child and the seat belt.
The socket of the car’s seat belt should not be located above
the lap belt guide of the child car seat. If this is not the case,
