A. Before You Begin
Thank you for choosing this car seat, referred to throughout
this manual as a child restraint and booster seat. Dorel
Juvenile Group, (DJG) is committed to creating convenient,
comfortable, and dependable products for children.
No one can predict if use of a child restraint will prevent injury
or death in a particular crash. However, combined with careful
driving, proper use of a child restraint can lower a child’s risk
of injury or death in most crashes.
Your child’s safety is worth the time it will take to read,
understand and follow the instructions and warnings.
After reading, if you still have questions or concerns with
the child restraint please contact our Consumer Relations
Department.
On the back of the shell there is an expiry date for use of this
child restraint. Do not use this seat after the expiry date.

To avoid your child being seriously burned,
take the following precautions:
1. Park in the shade or where sun does not directly
hit the child restraint or booster seat.
2. Cover the child restraint or booster seat with a
sheet or blanket when not in use.
3. Check for hot seat and buckles before placing
child in child restraint or booster seat.
To help protect your vehicle seat’s upholstery from damage, use
a car seat mat or a single layered towel underneath and behind
child restraint.
D-2 VehicleSeatingPosition
Safety Tip:
Children are safer
when properly
restrained in a rear
seating position
than in the front seating position.
According to accident statistics,
children in rear seating positions are
statistically safer, whether you have
airbags, advanced airbags, or no
airbags at all.
32
In very few vehicles, the child restraint or
booster seat cannot be properly installed
because of the type of seat belt system,
airbag system and/or lack of location
to anchor the tether strap. Always read
and follow the vehicle owner’s manual
instructions for child restraint and booster
seat use.
Use the child restraint
or booster seat only on
vehicle seats that face
forward. Do not use on
seats that face the sides
or rear of the vehicle. For
vehicles with an airbag,
but without a back seat,
refer to your vehicle
owner’s manual.

D-3 ChoosingUASorVehicleBelts
When installed properly, either the UAS or Vehicle Belts will
secure the child restraint equally.
The UAS
The Universal Anchorage
System (UAS) is for
installing child restraints
without using vehicle seat
belts.
The UAS can ONLY be
used in vehicles that have
the UAS anchor bars
installed and designated
UAS seating positions. Most vehicles manufactured after
September 2002 are equipped with UAS.
Check your vehicle owner’s manual to see which seating
positions may be equipped with UAS.
UASAnchor Bars
Vehicle Belts
If UAS is not an option, you
must use the vehicle seat
belt system to install the
child restraint. There are
some vehicle belts that
will not work with a child
restraint or will require special attention.
See next page and check your vehicle owner’s manual for
specific instructions.
Do not use both the UAS belt and vehicle
belt at the same time.
Review your vehicle owner’s manual for vehicle seat belt use
with child restraints. This is your best source for information
concerning your vehicle.
Not all vehicle belts will work with this child restraint. This
child restraint must be tightly locked in place at all times,
during travel. You must determine if your vehicle’s belts are
compatible with this child restraint.
VehicleBelts
•Automatic/Passivevehicle seatbelts
You MUST have a lap belt to install any child restraint. An
automatic (passive) shoulder belt may or may not have a
separate lap belt. Consult your vehicle owner’s manual.
•Vehicle beltsin centerof thedoor
orsidepanel
You must move the child restraint to
another seating location. Consult your
vehicle owner’s manual.
•Vehicle beltsthat arein frontof
theseatbight
You may need to move the child restraint
to another seating location. Consult your
vehicle owner’s manual.
•DoNot Usewithinflatableseatbelts
You may need to move the child restraint to another seating
location or use UAS belts only.
•ELR(Emergency LockingRetractor)vehiclebelts
These lap and shoulder belts only lock
in a sudden stop or crash, and do not
properly secure a child restraint alone.
Consult your vehicle owner’s manual.
To learn if you have this type of belt,
gently pull the belt all the way out of the retractor (spool), let it
return several inches, then pull on it again. If it moves freely, it
is an ELR belt. If it is locked and will not allow any more belt
to come out, it is a switchable retractor. If you have an ELR lap
and shoulder belt, review the “Vehicle Latch Plate” section to
see if you need a locking clip.

ELR lap-only belts MUST NOT be used with
this child restraint.
•Switchableretractor
These belts switch from ELR to ALR (Automatic Locking
Retractor). You must have the vehicle belts in the locking
mode to use them. Follow the instructions in the installation
sections.
•ALR(AutomaticLockingRetractor)
These belts lock after pulling the webbing out and letting the
belt go back into the retractor an inch or two. Follow the
instructions in the installation sections.
Vehicle Latch Plates •ChecktheLatchPlates
Buckle the lap/shoulder belt.
Pull on the lap belt portion.
If the vehicle belt does not
loosen or slip, you have
a locking latch plate. You
should not need to use a
locking clip. Consult your
vehicle owner’s manual.
If the belt loosens or slips,
you have a sliding latch
plate. If you have an ELR retractor and a sliding latch plate,
you MUST use a locking clip to install the child restraint or
move to another seating location. You may not need to use
the locking clip with a switchable or ALR retractor. Consult
your vehicle owner’s manual.

This booster seat is
NOT certified for use in
aircraft when used as a
booster seat, because
aircraft seats do not have
shoulder belts.
NOTE: Install the child restraint in a window seat to avoid
blocking the aisle. If the aircraft lap belt is too short, ask the
flight attendant for a belt extender.
