Clek Foonf — expiration
Convertible car seat.
Clek ties the Foonf to a 9-year useful life — all Clek car seats — the figure Clek's support-site expiry article states for the whole line, with no breakdown by category or shell constructio.
NOTE: Our seats have a lifespan of nine (9) years past their date of manufacture.

Read your label against the formula
Find the date of manufacture on the seat's label, then add 9 years — the same month. As Clek applies it:
| Manufactured in | Reaches its stated life in |
|---|---|
| 2019 | 2028 (same month as your label) |
| 2020 | 2029 (same month as your label) |
| 2021 | 2030 (same month as your label) |
| 2022 | 2031 (same month as your label) |
| 2023 | 2032 (same month as your label) |
| 2024 | 2033 (same month as your label) |
| 2025 | 2034 (same month as your label) |
| 2026 | 2035 (same month as your label) |
Where the date is on this seat
On the back of the seat, near the bottom: a barcode label with the date of manufacture, the serial number printed directly underneath it. The Foonf US/EN instruction manual states the same location as the label affixed to the back of this car seat.
The Foonf's date of manufacture and serial number can be found on the barcode label on the back of your seat, near the bottom.
