CAUTION
Before feeding the heated food to the child, always make sure that the temperature of the food is not too high.
If the food is not hot enough, keep the feeding bottle or jar in the bottle warmer using “maintain temperature” mode (see the paragraph titled “Maintain Temperature”). Check the heating status at regular intervals, making sure not to get burned, until the desired temperature is reached.

IN PARTICULAR:
For feeding bottles with the formula:
– shake the feeding bottle for a few seconds in order to even out the temperature of the food and check the temperature by pouring a few drops on the inside of your wrist.
For baby food jars:
– stir the contents of the jar to even out the temperature and taste to be sure it isn’t too hot.
NOTE: do not shake feeding bottles with breast milk to avoid forming air bubbles inside.
NOTE: if heated too much, the valuable nutrients and vitamins contained in breast milk could be lost.

MAINTAINING THE TEMPERATURE
At the end of the heating cycle, if the device is not switched off, it will continue to keep the food hot for a maximum of 60 minutes from the end of the cycle. During this phase, the indicator light (i) for the selected heating mode will continue to blink. Once the 60 minutes have passed the device will switch off automatically.

WARNING
During the maintenance cycle, the temperature of the food may rise above 37°C. In this case, the three indicator lights (i) will start to blink. Always check that the temperature of food is not too high before feeding it to the child.
Powdered milk that has been reconstituted in water at the right temperature of 70 °C, (as specified on the packaging for the powdered milk), can later be heated using the bottle warmer and consumed immediately.
Thawed breast milk should be used immediately.

NOTE:

• It’s best to consume milk and baby food immediately after heating.

BEST PRACTICES

· Ensure all vehicle occupants are properly restrained before traveling. Unrestrained

occupants can be thrown around and may be seriously injured or seriously injure other

occupants in a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash.

· Do not leave loose objects, such as books, bags, etc., in the back of the vehicle. In the

event of a sharp turn, sudden stop, or crash, loose objects can be thrown around and

possibly cause serious injury to vehicle occupants.

· Cover the Child Restraint when the vehicle is parked in sunlight. Parts of a Child Restraint

can become very hot if left in the sun. Contact with these parts can burn a child’s skin.

Always check the surface of any metal or plastic parts before putting your child in the

Child Restraint.

· To avoid strangulation, Do not allow children to play with vehicle seat belts. If possible,

move unused belts out of reach.

· Do not use anything to raise the Child Restraint off the vehicle seat such as a noodle

or towel. In a sharp turn, sudden stop, or crash, the Child Restraint could slide and

potentially cause serious injury.

VEHICLE INFORMATION VEHICLE INFORMATION

WHAT IS LATCH?

WARNING: This Child Restraint is designed to be used with lower anchors at the standard spacing (11 inches (28 cm)) ONLY! Refer to vehicle owner’s manual for information about LATCH and Child Restraint installation positions.

LATCH = Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren

United States Motor Vehicle Safety Standards have defined a system for installing Child Restraints in vehicles called LATCH. LATCH may ONLY be used IN PLACE OF vehicle belt if the vehicle is equipped with LATCH anchor points. DO NOT use both the seat belt and LATCH at the same time. Please refer to the vehicle
owner’s manual for designated LATCH locations in vehicles.

LATCH in the vehicle consists of a top tether anchor point and two lower anchor points. Some vehicles owner’s manual use the term “ISOFIX”. LATCH can also be used in vehicle seating positions equipped with ISOFIX.

If the vehicle is equipped with LATCH, the vehicle lower anchor points may be visible at

the seat crease. If not visible, the seating position may be marked with a symbol (fig. a) or

a colored dot. Check the vehicle owner’s manual for vehicle top tether anchor locations.

VEHICLE INFORMATION VEHICLE INFORMATION

WHAT IS A TETHER?
The tether is a strap on your child restraint that connects to a tether anchor in your vehicle. Tether anchor locations vary from vehicle to vehicle. Check your vehicle owner’s manual and look for the tether anchor symbol as shown. A tether reduces movement of a forward-facing Child Restraint in a crash and helps to achieve a tight installation.
Vehicle tether anchors can be found in many different locations. Some of the typical locations are shown on the next page. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for exact locations, anchor identification, and requirements.
