WARNINGS
IMPORTANT: RETAIN FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
THESE INSTRUCTIONS DETAIL THE SAFE USE, FITMENT AND
MAINTENANCE OF THE SEAT.
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND ENSURE THAT
THEY ARE FOLLOWED AT ALL TIMES.
NO SAFETY SEAT CAN GUARANTEE PROTECTION FROM INJURY
HOWEVER, PROPER USE OF THIS SEAT REDUCES THE RISK OF SERIOUS
INJURY OR DEATH TO YOUR CHILD.
THIS RESTRAINT MUST BE ATTACHED TO A CHILD RESTRAINT UPPER
ANCHORAGE POINT IN THE CAR. REFER TO CAR OWNER’S HANDBOOK
FOR LOCATION OF UPPER ANCHORAGE POINTS. REFER TO A CHILD
RESTRAINT FITTING STATION IF NO UPPER ANCHORAGE POINTS ARE IN
THE MOTOR CAR.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions at all times.
To be used with a lap-sash seatbelt by a child whose shoulders are above
the lower shoulder height marker with head restraint in lowest position
(approximately 4 years of age) until the child’s shoulders reach the upper
shoulder height marker with head restraint in highest position (approximately
6 to 8 years of age). Continue to use this booster seat until the child reaches
this limit. Children are safest in a booster seat until their shoulders reach the
upper shoulder height marker of the booster seat. Do not use this restraint
until child’s shoulders are above the lower shoulder height marker with the
head restraint in the lowest position. If knees do not bend in front of the
vehicle seat cushion, continue to use a booster seat. Just using a seatbelt
is not recommended for children that have outgrown this seat. Use a larger
booster seat.
Please read and follow all of the instructions outlined in this manual for maximum
protection.
If you have any questions regarding the installation or use of this child restraint
in Australia or New Zealand, please contact our customer service numbers
provided. An alternative option is to also contact any registered child tting
station authorised by your local transport authority.
No child restraint can guarantee absolute protection from a crash. However
proper use of this restraint may reduce the risk of injury or death.

PREPARING VEHICLE FOR YOUR SEAT
If your child is transitioning out of a booster, try this
simple three point test. You may nd that your child
is not yet ready to use an adult seatbelt without the
booster.
When your child has outgrown the seat, you can either use:
A booster seat suitable for children up to 4-10 years of age until
their shoulders reach the upper height marker of the booster
seat. NOTE: This illustration is representative only.
Or, follow the steps below to see if your child is ready to use
a vehicle seat belt.
3 POINT TEST
1. Does the sash part of the seatbelt sit on the middle of the shoulder
and not touch the neck or face?
2. Does the lap part of the seatbelt sit low down on the hips and not
on the abdomen?
3. When you sit the child on the seat with their bottom all the way back,
are their thighs long enough for their knees to bend allowing the legs
to hang over the front of the seat?

If you answered “no” to any of these questions, your child needs to be in a booster
seat to make both the sash and the lap part of the seatbelt t right to ensure
maximum crash protection.

IMPORTANT: FOLLOW THIS ADVICE
SHOULDER HEIGHT MARKERS
The booster seat is unsuitable for the occupant when the shoulders are
below the lower marker (Marker B) or above the upper marker (Marker A).
The child needs to be moved into the next form of restraint when they reach
the top shoulder height marker.
The child’s shoulders must be in-line
or above this marker. If the child’s
shoulders are below then the child
should remain in their previous child
restraint.
When the child’s shoulders reach
this upper marker, or the child no
longer ts in the child restraint
(approximately 6 to 8 years of age),
then try the 3 point test (see page 8).

NOTE:
• The anchor point can be found in dierent locations in dierent car. The
illustration above shows possible locations of anchor points. Sometimes it is
on the parcel shelf in sedans, and on the oor area in station wagons, vans
and hatchbacks. Make sure that you do not confuse the luggage hook in the
back of a station wagon with anchor points. Refer to your owner’s manual.
• An extension strap may be needed for vehicles without a xed parcel
shelf. Extension straps and extra ttings are available from various stores.
• Use of aftermarket accessories (i.e. items not provided in the box with the
child restraint) can reduce the safety provided by child restraint and may
cause injury or death.
