LATCH Warnings – cont.
For 5-point Harness Use Only
• ALWAYS be sure that the LATCH connectors are fully
engaged onto the LATCH anchor points by pulling
hard on the LATCH harness. If they are not totally
engaged, the LATCH system will not secure the child
restraint. Serious injury or death may result.
• DO NOT use this child restraint if it moves more than
25 mm (1 inch) forward or side-to-side at the vehicle
belt path on the child restraint. Serious injury or death
may result from poor installation. If you cannot tightly
secure the child restraint, try again or move it to
another location.
Tether Strap Warnings
• To avoid a strangulation hazard, you MUST tightly roll
or fold excess or unused tether strap and secure with
a rubber band. Attach the tether hooks to the storage
clips when not in use (p. 13). This will keep an unused
tether from hitting someone during a crash.
Additional Warnings
• In hot or sunny weather, ALWAYS check the seat, the
buckle and LATCH hooks, and adjuster for hot areas
before placing a child into the child restraint. The child
could be burned. Cover the child restraint with a light
colored blanket when you leave the vehicle.
• In cold weather, DO NOT dress the child in bulky
clothing like snowsuits if the child is riding in a child
restraint. Bulky coats/snowsuits make it difficult to
properly tighten the harness to the child, which may
allow the child to be ejected from the restraint during
a crash. If necessary, place a blanket over the
harnessed child without interfering with the child
restraint harness system.
• This child restraint must be securely fastened to the
vehicle, even when unoccupied, using the vehicle
seat belts or LATCH connectors. An unsecured child
restraint may injure someone if a crash occurs.
• DO NOT use the cup holder to store cans or hard
cups. Only for use with soft cups (such as styrofoam
or paper).
