ensures:
• That the head is always well contained and

always at the correct height, in other words at
the shoulders (Group 0+ and Group 1).
• That the car's diagonal belt is always at the
right height thanks to the guides built into
the headrest (Q) (Group 2/3).
To adjust the height of the headrest, use the
headrest adjustment lever (S), until the desired
height is reached (Fig. 47).

configuration (0-13 kg) it must be set to posi-
tion R.
In the Group 1 configuration (9-18 kg) the car
seat can be set to positions 1, 2 and 3.
In the Group 2/3 configuration (15-36 kg) the
car seat can only be used in positions 1 and 2.

Should the device interfere with vehicle com-
ponents it can be removed, by unhooking it
(Fig. 48).
