For older children (typically 15 kg and above, or 125 cm in height), the child seat can be converted into a high-back booster seat. This involves removing the internal 5-point harness system and using the vehicle's 3-point seatbelt to secure the child directly.

1. Follow the instructions in the detailed product manual to safely store or remove the 5-point harness components. The design allows for this without detaching parts, minimizing loss.
2. Ensure the headrest is adjusted to the correct height so the vehicle's shoulder belt rests properly across the child's shoulder, not on the neck.
3. When the child is seated, route the vehicle's 3-point seatbelt through the designated guides on the junior seat and buckle it.
4. Verify that the lap belt is low on the child's hips, touching the thighs, and the shoulder belt crosses the center of the shoulder and chest.
