Safe Practices
• Everyone rides buckled up or the vehicle does
not go. Make no exceptions for adults or children. If
someone unbuckles, stop the vehicle. Being firm and
consistent right from the start will mean fewer disci-
pline problems as children get older. Besides, an
unrestrained child or adult can be thrown into and
injure other passengers.
•
NEVER take a baby out of a child restraint for
comforting while the vehicle is moving.
• NEVER try to tend to a crying baby’s needs while
driving.
•
DO NOT allow a child to have objects such as
lollipops or ice cream on a stick. The object can
injure the child if the vehicle swerves or hits a bump.
• DO NOT feed an infant who is riding in a child
restraint.
• Anything loose can be deadly in a crash. Put sharp
or heavy items in the trunk.
• Always place handle in the car or stand position
before removing infant from carrier.
• DO NOT dress the child in blanket sleepers or other
clothing that would prevent the crotch strap from
fitting snugly up against the child.
• In hot, sunny weather cover the child restraint with
a light colored blanket when you leave the vehicle.
Always check the child restraint and buckle for hot
surfaces before
putting child into the restraint.
• In cold weather a child may need an extra blanket for
warmth. Secure the child in the child restraint and
cover both the child and the restraint with a blanket.
WARNING
Usage Warnings
• ALWAYS check the restraint and buckle for hot
surfaces before putting a child into the restraint.
Your child could be burned.
• In cold weather,
DO NOT dress the child in bulky
clothing, like snowsuits, if the child is riding in a child
restraint. This clothing makes it difficult to properly
tighten the harness to the child, which may allow the
child to be ejected from the restraint during a crash.
• ALWAYS place the handle in the “car” or “stand”
position (p. 12) when using this child restraint in a
vehicle.
• When using the restraint in the “stand” position
(p. 12), ONLY use on level ground and NEVER
prop the restraint up with any object.
• NEVER place this child restraint on beds, sofas, or
other soft surfaces. The child restraint can roll over
on soft surfaces and suffocate the child.
• NEVER leave the child in this child restraint when the
harness straps are loose or undone. A child may
strangle when straps are loose or undone.
• NEVER place this child restraint near the edges of
counter tops, tables, shopping cart, or other high
surfaces. The child’s movements can cause the child
restraint to slide and fall.
• The full-coverage canopy is not intended to provide
UV protection.
Additional W
arnings
• DO NOT attach additional padding, toys or other
devices not made by Evenflo, or described in these
instructions, to the child restraint. Items not tested
with the child restraint could injure the child.
• Be sure that the handle is firmly locked in the “carry”
position before lifting the child restraint (p. 12).
• This child restraint must be securely belted to the
vehicle at all times, even when unoccupied. An
unsecured child restraint may injure someone if
a crash occurs.
