Buckling Up The Child (With Height Adjustment Of The Seat Belts) - RECARO SALIA ELITE Notice D'utilisation

Inserting the infant carrier shell into the Salia Elite
To insert the infant carrier, it is recommended to rotate the Salia Elite towards the door first (see Chapter
6). Important: The headrest of the seat must be in its topmost position (see Chapter 5.2), in order to be
able to insert the infant carrier into the seat.
Now, with the carrying handle in the upright position, insert the infant carrier in such a manner that the
connecting elements (29) penetrate the insertion funnels (27). Then, push the infant carrier firmly into the
child car seat. The connection must lock in audibly. Ensure the infant carrier is properly locked in the seat
by pulling on the carrying handle.
After buckling the child into the infant carrier, rotate the child car seat back into the rear-facing position.
Removing the infant carrier
You can remove the infant carrier from the child car seat with your child placed in it. Here too, rotating
the seat towards the door first (see Chapter 6) will facilitate the removal. To remove it, first push both
infant carrier unlocking buttons (23) towards the upper rim of the shell and then, when they have reached
the dead-stop, push them downwards. The infant carrier is now unlocked and can be removed from the
child car seat.
Important: Your child must always be buckled in when placed in the infant carrier and never left unat-
tended.

5.2 Buckling Up The Child (with height adjustment of the seat belts)

The height of the shoulder belts together with the headrest can be adjusted to the height of your child.
Ideally, the shoulder belts should run from the shoulders of your child towards the rear at the height of
the shoulders or slightly above.
IMPORTANT: Ideally, the lower edge of the headrest should be located approximately 2 finger-widths
above the shoulders of the child.
Now, push the headrest into the desired position and allow the locking mechanism to lock.
Ensure proper locking by pushing the headrest downwards. It may be necessary to loosen the belt first.
To loosen the belt, actuate the belt adjustment button (19) and pull the shoulder belts forward as shown.
Open the belt lock (8) by pushing the red button, and pull out the belt tongues in an upward direction.
Place the belts outward.
Rotate the shell to the side (see Chapter 6).
Seat your child in the child car seat. When buckling on the belts, make sure that you do not twist them.
Join the belt tongues and push them into the belt lock (8) together. Ensure they lock in audibly.
Tighten the seat belt by pulling on the adjustment strap (10). The tighter the belt is strapped across your
child, the safer it will be in the child car seat. It is therefore recommended to take of thick jackets or
sweaters when in the child car seat.
IMPORTANT: Pay particular attention to the lap belts being fastened tightly, crossing the pelvis at the
lowest possible point. Once your child is buckled in, rotate the seat shell back into the driving position.
