KID XP

*ECE = European Standard for Child Safety Equipment

The child safety seat has been designed, tested and certified according to the requirements of the European Standard for Child Safety Equipment (ECE

R 44/03). The seal of approval E (in a circle) and the approval number are located on the orange approval label (sticker on the child safety seat).

DANGER! This approval will be invalidated if you make any modifications to the child safety seat. Only the manufacturer is permitted to make modifications to the child safety seat.

WARNING! Use the KID XP exclusively for securing your child in your vehicle. It is in no way suitable as a seat or toy in the home.

DANGER! Never secure your child or the child safety seat with a 2-point belt. If you secure your child in the child seat with only a

2-point belt, then in the event of an accident this may cause serious injuries to your child, possibly resulting in death.

4. USE IN THE VEHICLE

Please observe the instructions for using children's restraining systems in the operating

instructions of your vehicle. The seat can be used in vehicles with a 3-point belt.

Please find the information on the seats approved for child safety seats of the weight classes 15 to

7. SAFETY NOTES

Please take the time to read these instructions carefully and keep them to hand in the intended storage compartment 06 on the child safety seat at all times! The instructions must be with the child safety seat if the latter is passed on to a third party.

DANGER! For the protection of your child:

• In the event of an accident with a collision speed of more than 10 km/h, the child safety seat may be damaged without the damage becoming immediately visible. In this case the child safety seat must be replaced. Please dispose of it properly.

Have your child safety seat checked as a rule if it was damaged (e.g if it falls to the ground).

• Regularly check all important parts for damage. Ensure that all mechanical parts, in particular, are fully functional.

• Never lubricate or oil parts of the child seat.

Never leave your child unattended in the child seat in the vehicle.

Let your child in and out of the vehicle from the pavement side as a rule.

• Protect the child safety seat against intensive direct sun radiation, as long as it is not in use. The child safety seat can become very hot under direct sun radiation. Child skin is sensitive and could thereby be injured.

• The more snugly the harness fits over your child's body, the better your will be protected. Therefore avoid putting thick clothes on your child under the belt.

• Take regular breaks on long journeys in order to give your child the opportunity to play around.

• Use on the rear seat: Push the front seat forwards sufficiently so that the feet of your child do cannot hit the backrest of the front seat (to avoid the risk of injury).

DANGER! For the protection of all vehicle occupants:

In the case of an emergency stop or an accident, unsecured persons or objects may cause injury to other vehicle occupants. Please always check that...

• the backrests of the vehicle seats are locked (i.e. that a 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 transported.

WARNING! For your protection when handling the child seat:

• Never use the child safety seat free-standing, not even for test sitting.

• When swivelling up the backrest 07 , nothing must come between the backrest 07 and the seat cushion 03 . You or your child could pinch your fingers, injuring them.

• To avoid damage, ensure that the child safety seat is not jammed in between hard objects (car door, seat rails, etc.).

• Keep the child safety seat in a safe place if it is not in use. Do not place any heavy objects on the seat and do not store it directly next to sources of heat or in direct sunlight.

CAUTION! To protect your vehicle:

• Certain car seat covers made from more sensitive materials (e.g. velour, leather, etc.) may sustain signs of wear and tear when using child safety seats. For the optimum protection of your car seat covers, we recommend using the BRITAX

RÖMER child safety seat surface from our accessories programme.

8. ADJUSTING THE HEADREST

A correctly set headrest 22 ensures that the diagonal seat belt section 16 is optimally positioned, and gives your child optimum protection.

The headrest 22 must be adjusted so that there is a space two fingers wide between the headrest 22 and your child's shoulders.

To adjust the height of the headrest to fit your child:

1. Reach into the adjustment handle 05 on the back of the headrest 22 and pull it towards you.

This unlocks the headrest.

3. Place the child safety seat on the vehicle seat.

4. Have your child sit down in the child safety seat and check the height. Repeat the procedure until the headrest 22 has the correct height.
