_ THANK YOU!

We are delighted that you have chosen a quality Concord product.

You are sure to be convinced by this product‘s versatility and safety.

We hope you enjoy using your new CONCORD TRANSFORMER.

_ NOTES

ATTENTiON!

• Please read the instructions for use thoroughly before using the CONCORD

TRANSFORMER and keep them carefully for later reference.

Not following the instructions described herein can put the safety of the child at risk!

Please also note the instructions in the car’s operating manual for transporting

children in a car.

28

WArNiNG!

• Do not leave your child unattended.

• Children sometimes have items in their jacket or trouser pockets (e.g. toy) or wear

hard items that are attached to their clothes (e.g. belt buckle).

Make sure that these items do not get between the child and the safety belt – they

could cause unnecessary injuries in the event of an accident.

These hazards also apply to adults!

• Naturally children can often be very lively. You should therefore explain to children

how important it is to always be safely fastened in. Children must understand

that they should never change the way the belts are positioned, and never open the

buckle.

• Only if safety equipment is correctly installed and used can your child enjoy

maximum safety.

• The system straps must be fitted tautly and without twists and must be protected

against damage.

• Protect those parts of the CONCORD TRANSFORMER that are not covered in

fabric from direct sunlight to avoid your child being burned.

• The child restraint system must not be damaged or trapped by moving parts in the

car interior or by doors.

• Never modify the CONCORD TRANSFORMER in any way – this will endanger your

child’s safety.

29

• After an accident the CONCORD TRANSFORMER must be replaced or returned to

the manufacturer for testing, along with a report of the accident.

• You should also tell your passenger how to remove the child in the event of an

accident or danger.

• Do not leave your child in the child car seat unsupervised whether strapped

in or not.

• Secure luggage and other items to reduce the risk of injury in the event of an

accident.

• The user instructions must always accompany the child car seat.

• The use of accessories and replacement parts is not permissible and shall lead,

in the event of contravention, to the expiry of all claims under the warranty and of all

liability claims. Only special CONCORD original accessories are excluded.

• Suitable for cars with three-point (lap and diagonal) seat belts tested in accordance

with ECE Regulation 16 or a comparable standard.

30

As the period of use for the CONCORD TRANSFORMER is very long, it is natural that seat covers and other used parts will each receive different degrees of wear and tear depending on the individual duration and intensity of use and will need to be replaced.

For this reason it is not possible to give a blanket warranty of durability extending beyond a six-month warranty period. For additional purchases, please contact your local specialist child and baby shop, specialist departments in department stores, a car accessories centre or mail order companies. There you will also be able to buy the full range of accessories for CONCORD child car seats.

The buckle of the vehicle safety belt must not come above the edge of the lap belt guide. If in doubt or if you are still uncertain, please contact CONCORD. The belts may only be routed via the points of contact and the positions on the seat stated in the user instructions. Belts must not be routed in any other way.

If the car seat used has a front airbag, we recommend positioning the car seat as far back as possible. For cars with front and side airbags, the instructions in the car’s operating manual must also be observed. The car’s shoulder/diagonal belt must pass forwards from the vehicle bracket to the shoulder belt guide ( 06 ). Adjust the car seat position if necessary.

31

_ USiNG THE CONCOrD TrANSFOrMEr

You have decided to purchase our CONCORD TRANSFORMER seat for the safety of your child. This product is manufactured under strict quality controls. It can only effectuate its maximum safety properties if it is used properly. The cover is an important component and contributes to the seat’s effectiveness; for this reason the seat must only be used with its original cover! You should therefore ensure that you follow the instructions for fitting and use carefully.

The seat may be used on any seat in your car that is fitted with a three-point seat belt.

Statistics suggest that the place behind the passenger seat is the safest in the car.

_ iNSTALLiNG THE CONCOrD TrANSFOrMEr

Place the CONCORD TRANSFORMER on the car seat or bench seat, facing in the direction of travel.

The CONCORD TRANSFORMER should lie flush with the seat. In cars with standard headrests, these may be adjusted or removed to make it easier to install the child car seat.

Please note that the car headrests must be replaced and re-positioned correctly when an adult is travelling in the car.

The seat may not be transported unsecured in the vehicle, even if there is no child passenger. Otherwise passengers risk injury during the journey or in the event of an accident.

For this reason, the belt must always be fastened when travelling.

32 33

_ iNSTALLiNG THE CONCOrD TrANSFOrMEr WiTH TWiNFiX

Push the TWINFIX button ( 09 ) down and simultaneously pull out the

TWINFIX adapters ( 10 ) on the back of the child seat to their full extent.

Position the CONCORD TRANSFORMER facing forwards on the vehicle seat or bench fitted with ISOFIX points.

Push both TWINFIX adapters ( 10 ) on to the ISOFIX points in the vehicle until the locking mechanisms have clicked audibly into place.

34

Pull the TWINFIX central strap ( 08 ) forwards and guide the CONCORD

TRANSFORMER back until it lies as close/flush as possible to the car seat backrest.

In cars with standard headrests, these may be adjusted or removed to make it easier to install the child car seat. Please note that the car headrests must be replaced and re-positioned correctly when an adult is travelling in the car.

ATTENTiON!

• TWINFIX is an additional fitting system for securing the CONCORD

TRANSFORMER and is not suitable for securing a child.

• Children must always be secured by means of the car’s three-point safety belt.

35

_ rEMOViNG THE CONCOrD TrANSFOrMEr WiTH TWiNFiX

To remove the CONCORD TRANSFORMER, press the TWINFIX button ( 09 ) down and move the seat fully forwards.

A B

Now open the lock of the TWINFIX adapters ( 10 ) so that the safety hooks open and the adapters pop out.

Pull the TWINFIX central strap ( 08 ) forwards until the TWINFIX adapters

( 10 ) are fully retracted!

You can also push the TWINFIX adapters ( 10 ) further into the seat by hand!

36

_ VEHiCLES SUiTAbLE FOr TWiNFiX

The CONCORD TRANSFORMER with CONCORD TWINFIX system has been certified for “semi-universal” use and is suitable for installation on the seats of specified vehicles.

Please refer to the additional “CAR FITTING LIST” leaflet for an overview of cars and vehicle seats compatible with the CONCORD TWINFIX system at the time your child seat was manufactured.

For a continuously updated version, please visit www.concord.de.

37

_ SECUriNG THE CHiLD WiTH THE THrEE-POiNT bELT

Seat your child well back in the seating area. Pass the three-point belt across the front of the child to the seat belt lock, and fasten it in the same way as for an adult.

(There must be an audible click.)

Now position the belts. Pass the lap belt across both sides and the diagonal belt on the side of the seat belt lock through the lap belt guide ( 03 ).

Finally, pass the diagonal belt through the provided shoulder belt guide ( 06 ).

Make sure the belt passes inside the securing hook.

38

The CONCORD TRANSFORMER has 20 settings to adjust to the size of the child. Press the size adjustment control knob ( 04 ) at the rear of the CONCORD

TRANSFORMER‘s backrest, and move the head rest ( 01 ) into the correct position, while pressing and holding control knob ( 04 ).

The CONCORD TRANSFORMER is arrested in place, when you release control knob ( 04 ).

The shoulder belt guide ( 06 ) should be slightly above the top of the child‘s shoulder. At the same time, the shoulder belt should pass centrally between the child‘s neck and the outer edge of the shoulder.

39

Pull the belt taut so that the lap belt and diagonal belt are well positioned and ensure that the belts are not twisted. The lap belt should be in the lowest possible position.

If your vehicle is fitted with a seat belt height adjuster, adjust its height accordingly.

When you wish to release the child from the seat, all you need to do is open the lock and pass the strap back across the child. To remove the shoulder belt from the guide, press the shoulder belt locking button ( 05 ) and pull the belt forwards and out.

It is important to ensure that the belts are always correctly positioned each time the seat is used. If in doubt about any aspect of fitting, check with CONCORD.

The belts must pass through the guides marked in red on the seat. Belts must not be routed in any other way.
