Discontinue use of a child restraint that is older than six years or
has been in a severe crash to prevent injury due to deterioration
or hidden damage.
• This child restraint must not be used in the home, in boats, or
other non-certified applications.
•
Based on crash statistics, the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration recommends that parents select the rear seat
as the safest location for a properly installed child restraint.
Please study the section on Vehicle Safety Belts in this booklet
to ensure the child’s safety. If in doubt about installing the child
restraint, consult the vehicle owner’s manual.
•
Secure this child restraint even when it is not occupied. In a crash,
an unsecured child restraint may injure vehicle occupants.
•
When using in vehicle with air bags, refer to the vehicle
owner’s manual for child restraint installation instructions and
precautions.
•
Restraint must be in the full upright position when installed in
forward-facing mode with children over 33 pounds (15 kg).
•
Never use the adjuster strap to lift or carry this child restraint. Doing
so could cause damage to the harness adjuster and webbing.
Always carry this child restraint by the shell or tether straps.
•
The primary protection for occupants of a vehicle in a collision
is the structure of the vehicle itself; a child restraint will not
protect a child when the vehicle is seriously impacted. However,
correctly installed, a child restraint will substantially improve the
chances for survival in most crashes. Make sure that all users
fully understand the correct ways to use this child restraint in
a vehicle.
