NOTICE: This is a “Universal” child restraint. It is approved to
Regulation No. 44, 04 series of amendments, for general use
in vehicles and it will fit most, but not all, car seats.
A correct fit is likely if the vehicle manufacturer has declared
in the vehicle handbook that the vehicle is capable of
accepting a “Universal” child restraint for this age group.
This child restraint has been classified as “Universal” under
more stringent conditions than those which applied to earlier
designs which do not carry this notice. If in doubt, consult
either the child restraint manufacturer or the retailer.
IMPORTANT: The Maxi-Cosi Axiss is a universal car seat
for use with a 3-Point belt:
• Modelapproved
•
always be used facing the direction of travel, preferably
on the back seat of the car.
•
direction of travel. The car seat must not be positioned
with the back to the direction of travel.
•
compliance with the regulations is concerned (R44). This
excludes carelessness when driving, and not respecting
the Highway Code.
•
check that the seat belt is fastened correctly (the full
3-point seat belt) Tighten the 3-point seat belt by pulling
it with force. Make sure the belts are not twisted.
General instructions
Always pay attention to the following…
•
most accidents occur.
•
Car seats are not designed for home use.
•
the back seat, including where there is an airbag fitted.
However, we recommend installing it on the back seat.
If this is not possible, ensure that the front seat is as far
back as possible if an airbag is provided. Refer to your
car’s handbook as increasingly, airbags can easily be
deactivated.
•
even when not in use. A loose seat could injure other
passengers in an emergency stop.
•
wedged by heavy luggage, adjustable seats or closing
doors. Folding rear seats should always be locked down
securely.
•
Do not replace the cover with any cover other than the
original as the cover forms part of the total safety of the
seat.
•
in full sun as plastic and metal parts may become
extremely hot, this can cause burns and may discolour
the cover unnecessarily.
•
etc. from the cover.
•
objects (for example on the parcel shelf) in the car. In
an emergency stop or crash these become dangerous
projectiles!
•
breaks in order to give your child some room to move.
• Never leave your child alone in the car.
•

of the seat can only be guaranteed by the manufacturer if

•
seat or the belts. This includes the labels or warnings, etc.
that form part of the seat. These should not be removed
under any circumstances!
•
the seat may become unsafe due to damage that is not
immediately apparent.
•
impressions in car upholstery or car seat belts. These
cannot be avoided, since the safety standards demand
powerful and firm fastening methods. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for any damage that occurs as a
result of these.
And of course …
•
Waste separation
To ensure optimum and safe use of car safety seats, they
should not be used for longer than 5 to 6 years after the date
of purchase. Ageing of the plastic, for instance under the
influence of sunlight (UV), may quite unnoticeably reduce the
qualities of the product.
Once the child has grown out of the seat, we advise you to
stop using the car seat and to dispose of it accordingly.
On account of our concern for the environment, we request
the user of the Maxi-Cosi Axiss to separate the waste
accordingly, both from the beginning of the product’s life
(packaging) and the end of the product’s life (product
components).
Keep plastic wrapping material out of reach of your child in
order to avoid the risk of suffocation.
