Troubleshooting Tips

• Car seat is loose after installation: Recheck the ISOFIX connectors and top tether, and ensure they are tightly secured. Push the car seat into the vehicle seat to minimize movement.
• Difficulty rotating the seat: Ensure there is no obstruction and that the rotation button is fully pressed. Rotate the seat without the child in it to check for smooth movement.
• Harness is not tightening properly: Check for any twists in the straps and ensure the harness is not caught on anything. Try re-adjusting the harness without the child in the seat.
• Child seems uncomfortable: Adjust the headrest height, recline position, and check the harness for even distribution and snug fit.
