3. Before The First Use
At delivery, the RECARO Salia Elite comes with a forward-facing seat shell. To use it for babies below the
age of 15 months and with a body height of less than 76 cm, the back of the shell must face towards the
direction of travel.
4. Installing The Child Car Seat
• Insert the insertion aids through the upholstery slit in the backrest and seat and attach to the ISOFIX
attachment brackets. Make sure that the open side is facing upwards (Fig. 6). This is not necessary
where insertion aids are already permanently installed in your car.
• Fold out the support leg before installing the child car seat in your vehicle (Fig. 7).
• IMPORTANT: The support leg must always be folded out before the seat is installed in the vehicle.
• To extend the ISOFIX connectors, operate the ISOFIX length adjustment lever (14) front, located above
the support leg, and pull out the ISOFIX connectors (5) all the way to the dead stop (Fig. 8).
• Next, position the RECARO Salia Elite on the ISOFIX attachment brackets, making sure you can audibly
hear the connectors lock into place (Fig. 9).
• IMPORTANT: When using the child car seat on the front passenger seat, the passenger seat must be
moved to its rearmost position before the child car seat is installed. Make sure that the child car seat is
not trapped by the dashboard or the vehicle door.
• IMPORTANT: Both ISOFIX indicators must turn green. Check proper locking of the child car seat by
pulling on it (Fig. 10).
• Pull the ISOFIX length adjustment lever (14) upwards and push the RECARO Salia Elite at least one
position towards the backrest until it fits closely (Fig. 11). You have to hear an audible engaging.
• To adjust the height of the support leg, first push the support leg upwards all the way to the dead stop, and
then actuate the locking mechanism of the support leg (17) located on the front of the support leg (Fig. 12).
• Now, pull out the support leg until it rests safely on the vehicle floor. Make sure that the support leg is
securely locked in after releasing the lock button.
• When the length has been set correctly, the support leg indicator turns green as soon as the support
leg is set down on the car floor. If this is not the case, extend the support leg a little further as
described above.
• IMPORTANT: The indicator must switch to green (Fig. 13).
• In order to increase safety in the event of an accident, activate the side impact protection of the child
car seat. To do so, lift the impact protector on the side of the child car seat facing the vehicle door.
Check proper locking of the impact protector by pushing on it (Fig. 14).
• NOTICE: Even without the side protectors, the seat provides sufficient protection against side impact.
If the vehicle has enough space available, we recommend activating the side impact protector on the
side pointing towards the vehicle door.
5.1 Using the infant carrier
Your RECARO Salia Elite is equipped with a removable infant carrier for smaller children up to the
approximate age of 12 months, a body height of approximately 76 cm and up to a maximum weight of
10 kg. Before using the infant carrier for the first time, you will have to prepare the child car seat. First,
place the seat shell into the maximum resting position (see Chapter 7). Thereafter, place the headrest
into its top-most position, as shown in Chapter 5.2.
Now, fold up the lateral tabs of the cover as shown and secure them in this position using the Velcro
fasteners. You can now fold the attachment elements (12) of the removal infant carrier forward.
Plug the included insertion funnels (27) onto the rear crossbars of the attachment elements (12).
Pay special attention to ensuring a firm connection with the seat.
To adjust the infant carrier to the size of your child, actuate the lever on the back of the infant carrier (28),
and push the headrest to the desired height. The shoulder belt outlets with the Hero system (26) should
now be at the height of the child's shoulders. Ideally, the lower edge of the headrest should be located
approximately 2 finger-widths above the shoulders of the child (Fig. 32).
The infant carrier is fitted with an additional seat insert (25) which makes the seat smaller. This needs to
be removed before the head rest is height-adjusted for the first time.
