Selecting a Vehicle Seating Location
WARNING
There are many different types of vehicles, vehicle seat belt
systems, or other occupant restraint systems in use today.
Accordingly, this manual can only give guidelines for proper
installation in your vehicle. In addition to this manual, you must
also read and understand the vehicle owner’s manual, which
should address use of child restraints. If your vehicle owner’s
manual does not address the installation of child restraints,
please contact your local vehicle dealer, or the vehicle’s
manufacturer to obtain this information before using this
Booster Seat.
Not every seating location within a vehicle may be safe for the
installation of this Booster Seat. In fact, some vehicles have no
seating location that is safe for the installation of a Booster Seat.
Improper placement of this Booster Seat within a vehicle will increase
the risk of death or serious injury in a sudden stop or crash.
See “Vehicle Seat Belts” section for more information on vehicle seat
belts.
Please follow the instructions in this manual and in the vehicle owner’s
manual carefully to ensure proper location and installation of this
Booster Seat. If you are uncertain about the proper location of the
Booster Seat within the vehicle, contact your vehicle manufacturer
directly or through their dealer before using this Booster Seat. You are

7.0 Selecting a Vehicle Seating Location
7.1 Overall Considerations for Selecting a Seating Location:
• Please review the vehicle’s owner’s manual to determine the
best location for Booster Seat use, any specific instructions for

owner’s manual or the owner’s manual does not address child
Booster Seat use, please contact the vehicle manufacturer to
obtain this information before using the Booster Seat.

locations have been shown to be statistically safer for children
than a front seating location.

in the vehicle’s owner’s manual and follow all instructions in the
vehicle’s owner’s manual.
