Vital information

Installation & usage

• The child seat MUST NOT be installed in a front seat WITH AN ACTIVATED FRONTAL AIRBAG.
• When using in Spain: Article 117 of the General Regulation of Traffic in Spain prohibits driving with children of stature height equal to or less than 135 centimeters located in the front seats of the vehicle, unless the vehicle does not have rear seats, all rear seats are already occupied by children below 135 cm or if it is not possible the install the child seat in the rear seat.
• This seat can be installed on the BeSafe Beyond Base or with a 3-point car belt, approved according to UN/ECE Regulation No.16 or other equivalent standards.

• This seat is approved rear-facing for children with a stature height from 40 to 87 cm and a maximum weight of up to 13 kg.
• When driving with a child sitting in the seat, the seat must always be locked in the driving position. Never drive with the seat rotated to the side when a child is sitting in the seat.

• The shoulder pads contain magnets. Magnets can influence electronic equipment such as pacemakers or other medical devices.
• Protect any part of the child’s body that is exposed to the sun.
• Always dress your child in a thin layer of clothes to avoid direct contact between harness belts and skin. Avoid puffy clothes since this prevents being able to tighten the belts fully.

Attaching the SIP+

1. The seat is delivered with removable SIP+ (side impact protection+). This extra side impact protection should be used on the door side of the vehicle. It can be connected by placing it onto the SIP+ attachment point and then rotating it clockwise until you feel it click into place. The seat already offers high-level integrated side impact protection. This extra side impact protection improves the protection of the side impact even further. (1, 2, 3, 4)
2. Do not use the SIP+ on the seat when the space between the seat and the door of the vehicle is too small, which might lead to a situation where the seat is not positioned correctly on the vehicle seat.
3. In case the SIP+ sits at the height of the door window and your car is equipped with side curtain airbags, then do not use the SIP+ if there is less than a 10 cm distance between the SIP+ and the window.

Installing the seat with the vehicle belt

1. Position the seat on the vehicle seat. Make sure the inner part is in the upright position (NOT lay flat position) and the carry handle is up in the carrying position. (1, 2, 3)

5. Tighten the shoulder belt part by pulling on it. With your other hand, keep the child seat in place. (3)
6. Leave the carry handle up in an upright position and the inner part of the seat in an upright position (NOT lay flat position). (4, 5, 6)
7. If you have installed the child seat on the back seat: Move the front vehicle seat backward so that it is in light contact with the child seat. If this is not possible, then move the front seat forward to create as much distance as possible between the child seat and the front seat, preferably at least 25 cm.

Installing the seat onto the Beyond Base

1. Check if the ISOfix and floor support indicators on the base are green.
2. Make sure that the base’s front brace is in the most upright (compact) position.
3. You find a detailed explanation of how to install the base into the car in the base’s user manual.
4. If you want to install the seat rotated towards you onto the base, you can turn the rotation disc, so that the child on the sticker is facing towards you. (1, 2)
5. Position the seat in the correct position on the base until it clicks with the base and the seat connection indicator at the front shows green. (3, 4, 5)
6. To help you find the position, you can use the yellow markings on the bottom of the seat and the base disc. Align the yellow markings with each other. (6)
7. When having the child seat installed rear-facing in the back, it is recommended to position the front vehicle seat in a way that is close to touching the child seat. Make sure that the child seat can still rotate freely.

Removing the seat from the base

2. To rotate the seat, pull the rotation handle on the side of the seat. You can use the handle on either side of the seat, but you only need to use one. (1, 2, 3)
3. To bring the seat back into the driving position, rotate it into reathe R-facing position until you hear a click and the seat is locked. (4, 5)
4. The seat can rotate approximately. 110° away from the rear-facing position, then it is blocked.

Using the carry handle

1. To take your baby more easily in and out of the seat, you can fold away the carry handle to the back.

3. To fold the carry handle to the back, press the button on the backside of the carry handle and at the same time push the handle vertically downwards into the seat. This unlocks the mechanism and you can then move the handle away to the back. (3, 4, 5)

Placing the child into the seat

1. While pressing the button of the central adjuster, pull the shoulder belts away from the seat with a flat hand. Make sure to pull the belts evenly so that they stay at the same length. Do not pull on the shoulder pads, as they are fixed and cannot move. (1)

When you tighten the harness, make sure that the child is positioned well against the backrest. (6, 7, 8)

Comfort for the baby

Using the lay-flat position

1. To increase your baby’s comfort, especially when they’re small, the seat is equipped with a lay-flat position, in which the inner part of the seat moves into a more flat position, while the outer part remains in place.
2. You can use the lay-flat position on a stroller or in the car when the seat is installed with the ISOfix base.
3. It is not allowed to use the lay-flat position in the car when the seat is installed with the 3-point vehicle belt. You will notice that the seat is constructed to block going into lay flat position when installed with the 3-point belt.
4. To put the seat into a lay flat position, pull the lay flat strap or anywhere at the foot end of the seat’s inner part downwards/towards you. You will\ notice a small resistance at first, this is normal. (1, 2, 3)
5. To put the seat into an upright position, push the seat’s inner part by its foot end upwards/away from you. You will notice a small resistance at first, this is normal. (4)

Sun canopy

2. You can use the sun canopy on the stroller and in the car, but take extra care in the car to check for good airflow and avoid heat build-up.
3. To enable you to see your baby at the same time, the sun canopy has a function where you can adjust the left and right sides of it individually. Hold one side in place while with the other hand move the other side up or down. (2)

Adjusting the seat to the growing child

Shoulder belt/headrest height
