3.2. with ISOFIX fastening and TopTether anchoring
The advantage of using the TopTether
The RÖMER DUO plus version with TopTether makes an additional stabilising
connection possible between the child seat fastened with ISOFIX and the vehicle
seat, thus reducing the injury risk even further.
The TopTether is placed in a fabric pocket on the top rear edge of your RÖMER
DUO plus. If you have purchased a RÖMER DUO plus without TopTether, you
can buy it as accessory from your specialised shop.
Important
The TopTether anchor must only be used in vehicles which have a vehicle-
specific approval (see type approval list).
If your vehicle is equipped with one of the three TopTether metal anchorage
points, they will be:
•on the rear shelf
•on the floor
•behind the backrest
Please observe the recommendations of your vehicle manual. Do not modify your
vehicle by drilling or bolting something in. Never fasten the TopTether to a
location which has not been recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. If the
TopTether comes loose in a crash, there is a danger of injury to the vehicle
passengers.
After adjusting the shoulder belts (refer to 4.1 ) fasten the child seat with ISOFIX
and TopTether as follows:
1. Prepare ISOFIX
Clip the two insertion guides* 1to the two
ISOFIX fastening points 28 of the vehicle
seat (between seat and backrest). The
cutout must point upwards.
* The insertion guides make it easier to fit the child seat with ISOFIX
and avoid damage to the seat cover. They should be removed when
not in use and kept in a safe place. In vehicles with folding down
backrests, the insertion guides must be removed before folding down
the backrest.
Any malfunctions are usually caused by dirt on the insertion guides
and on the hooks. This problem can be solved by cleaning these
points.
