4. Configurazione e installazione

The TecTake Child Car Seat is a universal car seat designed for installation using the vehicle's 3-point seat belt. It supports three weight groups:

1. Group 1 (9-18 kg, approx. 1-4 years):

   Install the car seat using the vehicle's 3-point seat belt. Secure the child within the car seat using the integrated 5-point harness system. Ensure the harness straps are snug but comfortable, and the buckle is securely fastened.

2. Group 2 (15-25 kg, approx. 3-7 years):

   Remove the integrated 5-point harness. Install the car seat with the backrest using the vehicle's 3-point seat belt. The child is secured directly by the vehicle's 3-point seat belt, ensuring it passes correctly through the designated guides on the car seat.

3. Group 3 (22-36 kg, approx. 6-12 years):

   For older children, the backrest can be removed, converting the unit into a booster seat. The child is then secured directly by the vehicle's 3-point seat belt, ensuring the lap belt is low across the hips and the shoulder belt crosses the shoulder and chest, not the neck.
