passengers in the car in the event of an accident or emergency stop.
• Ensure that the seat is not damaged by wedging it between or underneath heavy luggage, adjustable seats or
slamming the car door, etc.
• NEVER place a baby on your knee in the car. Due to the enormous forces released in an accident, it will be
impossible to hold on to the baby.
• Never use the same 3-point seat belt to secure yourself and the baby in the car.
• No alterations may be made to the Maxi-Cosi Citi (seat and harness belt) as this could effect part or the overall
safety of the seat. In such a case the manufacturer cannot guarantee the safety of your child.
• It is advisable not to leave your child in the Maxi-Cosi Citi for hours at a time. To aid the natural development of
your child, it is important that the child be placed regularly flat on its back or stomach.
• The Maxi-Cosi Citi must not be used without the cover. Always use an ORIGINAL Maxi-Cosi Citi cover, as the
cover contributes to the safety of the seat. The energy absorbing foam in the shell is essential for the safety and
must not be removed.
• Everyone travelling in the car must wear a seat belt. Passengers on the back seat not wearing a seat belt could
be dangerous to the child in the front seat.
• In order to prevent damage to the cover do not remove the Maxi-Cosi Citi-logo.

the back cover of this instruction manual).
Securing the baby in the Maxi-Cosi Citi
A/F
Never leave your child unattended in the seat. This also applies when using the seat outside the car.
• Open the belt buckle (press the red button).
• Ensure the baby is placed correctly in the seat, its back firmly against the back of the seat. The ergonomic shape
of the shell ensures the baby does not slump in the seat.
• The shoulder belts must fit correctly over the shoulders of the baby.
• Slide both plastic tongue sections together (fig.A).
• Insert both tongue sections in the buckle, you will hear a loud click locking them in position (fig.A).
• Pull the adjuster belt at the front of the shell tight, so that the child is firmly secured with the harness belt (the
belt system).
The Maxi-Cosi Citi is supplied with a removable support pillow (fig.B). This helps the lying position of the baby
and supports the head sideways. The Cosi Dozi can be used for a longer period of time if the foam wedge is remo-
ved. To remove the foam wedge, open the gauze side flaps (fig C-1). When replacing the foam wedge ensure that
it is completely covered by the gauze side flaps (fig C-2). We recommend that you do not use the Cosi-Dozi for
longer than 5 months.
Adjusting the harness belt
D
The harness belt (belt system) must be adjusted to suit your childs body.
The harness shoulder belts must be threaded through the slots nearest to the shoulders of the child.
Adjust the harness shoulder belts as follows
D
• Open the door of the storage compartment at the back of the shell.
• Pull the shoulder belts through the slots in the cover and the shell.
• Thread the shoulder belts through the correct slots in the shell and cover.
