Can I use my car seat if it has been damaged?

How do I wash the fabric cover?

Why should I use a 5-point harness?

The force exerted on the carseat will be significantly lessened by the five-point harness. The harness will absorb the force of a brake at a greater rate than the three-point harness as it has more points to take in the force.

How can I check if the harness is installed correctly?

Make sure the gap between the harness straps and your child can fit no more than one adult-sized finger. If your child can freely escape the car seat, the harness straps are too loose and must be tightened. Avoid dressing your child in loose-fitting clothing, as this may prevent the harness from being tight enough for your child's safety. Always lay harness straps flat. Do not cross, knot, twist, or tie straps together.

When should I use an extra cushion?

"PERO's extra cushion must be used if your child weighs less than 15kg (33lbs) or is shorter than 80cm (31.5in). This extra cushion is designed for children transitioning between Group 0 and Group 1 car seats. It increases your child's height so that their head can properly rest on the headrest and provides much more comfort for your child's back."
