Fitting it in your car.
About ten minutes. The Cybex manual in your bag has every detail and is always the final word.
- Click in the ISOFIX connectors
Pull out the two connectors, click them onto the car’s ISOFIX anchors and push the booster back against the backrest.
- Set the headrest height
With your child sitting in it, raise or lower the headrest so it sits just above their shoulders.
- Route the lap belt low
Pull the car’s seat belt across and guide the lap part under both armrests, low across the hips, not the tummy.
- Route the shoulder belt
Put the diagonal belt through the belt guide in the headrest so it crosses the middle of the shoulder and chest.
- Buckle and tighten
Click the buckle in and pull the belt snug. When the seat is empty, buckle it in too so it can’t move.
No ISOFIX in the car? The booster can also be used with the seat belt alone.
Before you drive.
Thirty seconds of checks, every time you buckle up.
- Every indicator on the seat shows green.
- At the base, the seat moves no more than about 2.5 cm side to side.
- The harness is snug: you can’t pinch a fold of strap at the shoulder.
- Coats off before buckling. Put the jacket over the harness instead.
- Never a rear-facing seat in front of an active airbag.
- Booster: lap belt low over the hips, shoulder belt across the middle of the shoulder.
