with the base station if the latter is passed on to a third party .
DANGER! F or the protection of your child:
• In the event of an accident with a collision speed of more than
10 km/h, the base station may be damaged without the damage
becoming immediately visible. In this case the base station must
be replaced. Please dispose of it properly .
• As a rule, have your base station checked if it was damaged
(e.g if it falls on the ground).
• Regularly check all important parts for damage. Ensure that all me-
chanical parts, in particular , are fully functional.
• Never lubricate or oil parts of the base station.
•
Never leave your child unattended in the
infant carrier and base station
in the vehicle.
• P ark in such a way that you can always stand on the pavement when
you place the infant carrier in the vehicle or take it out.
• Pr otect the infant carrier and the base station from int ensive direct
sunlight when they are not in use. The infant carrier can get very hot
in direct sunlight. Children's skin is sensitive and could be harmed.
•
The more snugly the belt fits over your child's body, the better they will
be protect ed. Therefor e, avoid putting thick clothes on your child under
the belt.
• The installation and warning stickers are an important part of the
base station and must not be removed.
• The infant carrier is not intended t o hold your baby for prolonged
periods of time. The semi-recumbent position in the infant carrier will
always put a strain on your baby's spine. T ake your baby out of the
infant carrier as often as possible – this includes int errupting long car
rides. Do not keep your baby in the infant carrier once it has been
removed from the car .
• Lock the backr ests of the vehicle seats (for example, engage the
latch on the foldable rear seat bench).
• Never try to secure a baby on your lap with the vehicle seat belt
or by holding onto them.
• Do not place objects in the footwell in front of the base station sup-
port leg.
DANGER! F or the protection of all vehicle occupants:
In the case of an emergency stop or an accident, unsecur ed persons
or objects may cause injury to other vehicle occupants. Please always
check that:
• the backrests of the vehicle seats are lock ed (i.e. that any foldable
rear seat bench latch is engaged).
• all heavy or sharp-edged objects in the vehicle (e.g. on the parcel
shelf ) are secured.
• all persons in the vehicle have their seatbelts fastened.
• the child safety seat is always secured when it is in the vehicle, even
if no child is being transport ed.
WARNING! F or your protection when handling the child seat:
•
T o avoid damage, ensure that the
base station
is not jammed in be-
tween hard objects (car door , seat rails, etc.).
•
Keep the
base station
in a safe place when it is not in use. Do not
place any heavy objects on the
base station
and do not store it dir ect-
ly next to sour ces of heat or in direct sunlight.
CA UTION! T o protect your vehicle:
•
Certain car seat covers made from more sensitive mat erials (e.g. velour ,
leather , etc.) may sustain signs of wear and tear when using child safety
seats. F or optimum protection of your car seat covers, we r ecommend
using the BRIT AX RÖMER car seat prot ector from our r ange of acces-
sories.

clamp the two ISOFIX insertion aids 02 , which are included in the
scope of delivery of the seat*, with the cutout pointing upwards
to the two ISOFIX fast ening points 01 of your vehicle.
TIP: The ISOFIX fastening points are locat ed between the surface
and the backrest of the vehicle seat.
* The insertion aids facilitate the installation of the child safety seat with the use of the ISOFIX
fastening points and prevent damage t o the car seat covers. If the insertion aids are not being used,
remove them and keep them in a safe place. F or vehicles with a foldable backrest, the insertion aids
need to be removed befor e folding the backrest.
Any problems which occur are usually caused by dirt or foreign objects on the insertion aids and
on the hooks. Remove soiling or external objects t o rectify such problems.
