•    DO NOT USE WITH JUST A LAP BELT. You must use with lap-sash seat belt, or with a 

seat belt and child harness.

•    The lap part of the seatbelt must be firmly across the thighs and the sash belt fitted 

diagonally across the chest and on the shoulder.

•    If used with a child harness, the lap belt must be adjusted firmly first, and then the harness, 

so that the lap belt is not lifted off the child’s lap when the harness is adjusted.

•    Use the restraint exactly as shown in the instructions.
•    Supervision of children is needed because they may be able to undo the buckles and/or 

special features.

•  DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN UNATTENDED IN THE CAR
•  Do not alter or modify this restraint.
•    Repairs must only be done by the manufacturers or agent.
•    Do not allow the restraint to come into contact with polishes, oils, bleach and other 

chemicals.

•    Destroy the restraint if it has been in a severe crash, even if no damage is visible.
•    DO NOT USE THIS RESTRAINT WITHOUT THE COVER. 
•    IF AN AIRBAG IS FITTED IN THE SEATING POSITION WHERE THE CHILD RESTRAINT 

IS TO BE FITTED, FOLLOW THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER’S WARNINGS AND 
INSTRUCTIONS.

•  The child in the seat must not slump or slouch such that the lap belt is on the abdomen. 

The lap belt on the abdomen is dangerous.

 

The lap belt positioning SecureGuard™ Anti 

Submarining Device must always be used.

•    Always secure the loose end of the top tether strap. Do not use the child restraint where this 

strap may fall into a split in the seat back or off the side of the seat.

•    ALWAYS ATTACH HOOK AND REMOVE SLACK.
•    VERSATETHER - ONLY USE FOR ATTACHMENT OF CHILD HARNESS.
•    DO NOT ATTACH THIS CHILD RESTRAINT TO ANY ISOFIX LOW ANCHORAGE. 

ISOFIX low anchorage is cars are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by 
children aged up to approximately 4 years of age in a correctly fitted and approved ISOFIX 
compatible child restraint. This child restraint is not approved for use with the car's ISOFIX 
low anchorages.

       IMPORTANT :

•  Protect all webbing from abrasion and cutting by sharp corners and edges.
•  This restraint must be used facing forward and in conjunction with a lap-sash seat belt or 

converted seatbelt and approved child harness.

•  THIS RESTRAINT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE WHERE THE TOP TETHER STRAP MAY 

FALL INTO A SPLIT IN THE SEAT BACK OR OFF THE SIDE OF THE SEAT.

•  Seatbelt extenders are not recommended to be used if the seatbelt is not long enough to 

secure the child restraint. If seatbelts are too short then seek advice from a child restraint 
fitter and consider their recommendations before using a seatbelt extender. If you use a 
seatbelt extender then ensure that the seatbelt buckle does not contact the child. 

•  This child restraint is not approved for use with any connectors that connect to the car’s 

ISOFIX low anchorages

•  Do not use in a front seat, unless your child is over 4 years of age or in accordance with the 

applicable Road Rules in your region. Research shows that children under 12 years old are 
at a greater risk of serious injury when travelling in the front seat.

•  Do not use on any vehicle seat which faces sideways or rearwards.
•  Use of aftermarket accessories (i.e. items not provided in the box with the child restraint), 

can reduce the safety provided by the child restraint and may cause injury or death.

•  Use a towel or seat protector (messy mat)  to protect the vehicle seat. Protection of both 

underneath and behind the booster seat may be required.

•  Do not store in hot places or underneath heavy objects. The plastic may distort.
•  The restraint should not be purchased or sold as a second hand item. It is recommended 

not to use child restraints older than 10 years as the protection in an accident may be 
reduced.

•    Regularly check the restraint components, straps and other fitments for correct function, 

cracking & condition. Seek immediate repair.

•  Do not lift the seat by the headrest or the Side Wings.
