WARNING WARNING
Location Warnings – continued
• ONLY use this child restraint on vehicle seats with backs
that lock into place.
• Adjust or remove the vehicle headrest in the seat where
the child restraint is to be fastened, so that the back of
the child restraint rests against the vehicle seat back.
• The headrest on the vehicle seat in front of the child
should be put in its lowest position. The vehicle seat back
that the child faces must be fully padded and free of any
hard objects.
Seat Belt Warnings
If the vehicle seat belts are not routed and fastened correctly,
the child restraint may not protect the child in a crash.
For 5-point Harness Use Only
• If the child weighs more than 29.4 kg (65 lbs) or their
shoulders are above the highest harness level, you MUST
use this child restraint as a booster (p. 34).
• DO NOT use this child restraint if it moves more than
25 mm (1 inch) side to side or front to back at the
vehicle belt path. Serious injury or death may result from
poor installation. If you can not tightly secure the child
restraint, try again or move it to another location.
For Both 5-point Harness and Booster Use
• DO NOT use this child restraint in a vehicle with
door-mounted seat belts.
• DO NOT use this child restraint in a vehicle with seat
belts that automatically move along the vehicle frame
when the door is opened. These seat belts will not hold a
child restraint properly.
• DO NOT allow the seat belt release button to touch the
child restraint. Accidental contact may cause the seat belt
to release. If necessary, turn the seat belt release button
away from the child restraint or move the child restraint
to a different location.
• Failure to adjust the harness or vehicle seat belts snugly
around the child may result in the child striking the
vehicle’s interior during a sudden stop or crash.
Serious injury or death may occur.
• Remove locking clip from vehicle seat belt when not used
with a child restraint, or the vehicle seat belt will not properly
restrain an adult or child. Serious injury or death may occur.

above the back of the booster seat headrest.
• The shoulder belt MUST NOT cross the child’s neck or
fall off the child’s shoulder. If you can not adjust the
shoulder belt to properly lay midway between the
