Section 12: Trouble Shooting
In certain vehicle applications, you may encounter challenges to
safely install and position a child in the restraint system. This section
gives ideas on how to solve some of these situations. If you do not
nd an adequate solution, call us at 1-800-8-RECARO for help.
Problem:
The seat belt is twisted.
Solution:
Unbuckle the seat belt, pull the seat belt away from the
child restraint remove it from the child restraint routings
and allow it to retract into the vehicle (it might help to
slowly guide it back into the vehicle’s seat belt retractor
to prevent binding). Route the entire seat belt around the
restraint and child once again.
Problem:
The seat belt is not tight around the child.
Solution:
Press downward on the child restraint and rmly pull all
slack out of the seat belt. This will allow the child restraint
to compress the vehicle’s seat and allow the seat belt to be
further tightened.
Problem:
The Vivo
/ Vivo lite
is not stable when driving.
Solution:
Check to see if there are items under the booster. Remove
anything found. Some vehicle seats are deeply contoured
making it difcult to safely install a child restraint. If he Vivo
/ Vivo lite
is not stable due to the vehicle seat cushions,
move it to another seating location. If no seating location
is suitable, the Vivo
/ Vivo lite
may not be used in this
particular vehicle.
