WARNING
Vehicle Seat Belt Warnings – cont.
• DO NOT use this child restraint rear-facing in a
vehicle equipped with lap belts that only lock
during a sudden stop or crash (emergency locking
retractor – ELR).
You must use a seating location with a locking seat
belt. Check your vehicle owner’s manual to see if
you have lap belts with ELR’s.
• DO NOT loosen the vehicle seat belt to provide
more leg room as this will prevent the child
restraint from protecting your child.
• Fold-down armrests could pose a hazard to a rear-
facing child in certain types of collisions. Consult
your vehicle owner’s manual before installing any
rear-facing child restraint in front of a fold-down
armrest.
• The headrest on the vehicle seat that the child faces
should be placed in the lowest position. The vehicle
seat back that the child faces must be fully padded
and free of any hard objects.
• DO NOT use this child restraint if it moves more
than 25 mm (1 inch) forward or side-to-side at the
seat belt path. Serious injury or death may occur.
Move the child restraint to another seating location.
• If the vehicle seat belts are not routed and fastened
correctly, the child restraint may not protect your
child in a crash.
• DO NOT allow the vehicle seat belt release but-
ton 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 snugly around your
child may result in your 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.
