Practical advice
When the child seat is mounted in the car check all the areas
where the child seat might touch the interior. We recommend
using a (BeSafe) protection cover in these places to avoid cuts,
marks or discolouration on the interior of the vehicle, especially
in vehicles with leather or wooden interior.
