Ensuring your child's safety and comfort is paramount when using the Inglesina Darwin Next Stage i-Size car seat. Adjusting the headrest and harness correctly is essential. Here's a detailed guide:
-
Adjusting Headrest and Harness:
- Locate the release button on the seat (B2) and press it to begin adjusting the headrest and harness.
- Press the release button (B1) and pull the harness to fully extend it.
- Release the central buckle by pressing the red button (B3).
- To make it easier to place your child in the seat, move the harness straps apart and secure them outside the seat using the loops (S7 and S8).
- Position your child in the car seat, ensuring their back and legs are fully against the seat.
- Simultaneously adjust the harness and headrest to one of the four available positions to accommodate your growing child.
- The harness straps should be positioned at the level of your child's shoulders, not behind their back or at ear level.
- To adjust the height, move the adjustment lever (A1) to the desired position until you hear a click, indicating it's locked.
- Make sure the head hugger is at the correct height relative to your child's shoulders.
- Secure the harness by overlapping the two ending parts (B4) and inserting them into the buckle until you hear a click.
- Ensure the belts fit snugly against your child's body by pulling the end of the regulator (B5). There should be no slack between the belts and your child.
- To release the belts, press the red button (B3).
