IMPORTANT Safety Information
• This child restraint is designed to t a wide range of individuals. To
ensure a proper t for the user, it is important that the child restraint
be correctly set up and installed before using it for the rst time.
• Read the section on “Vehicle Seat Belt Compatibility” (pg. 10-11)
to determine the type of seat belts that may be used with this child
restraint.
• No additional padding, other than what is provided with the child
restraint, should be used behind or under the child restraint, or under
or behind the user in the child restraint.
• The child restraint harness should not be worn over heavy clothing
such as thick jackets, coats or vests.
• If your child restraint becomes badly worn or damaged, or is involved
in a crash, regardless of speed and regardless of how minor, your
child restraint may no longer be effective and should be immediately
replaced.
• The metal parts on the child restraint and/or vehicle seat belt can
heat up if the vehicle is parked in the sun. To avoid injury to the
occupant, always check that the metal parts are not too hot before
putting the occupant in the seat. We recommend covering the seat
with a blanket or towel, if you park your vehicle in the sun, to help
keep the metal parts from heating up.
• Do not leave loose objects in the passenger compartment of your
vehicle. In the event of a crash, these objects can become projectiles
and can cause serious injury or death.
• Do not leave folding vehicle seats unlatched. In the event of a
sudden stop, a loose seat back could prevent the child restraint from
protecting the child as well as it should.
• Do not, except as described in this booklet, attempt to disassemble
any part of this child restraint or change the way its harness or the
vehicle restraint belts are used.
• Discontinue use of a child restraint if it has been involved in a crash
to prevent injury due to deterioration or hidden damage.
• Upholstery meets Fire-Retardant Code 302 for automobile
upholstery.
