or Base from any other manufacturer. If you are in need of an
additional Base, please contact your local dealer or Baby Trend
to obtain one.
• Never leave the Car Seat or Base unsecured in your vehicle even
when not occupied. An unsecured seat or base can fly through
the vehicle in the event of a crash, sudden stop or sharp turn and
cause serious injury to the driver, who may then loose control
of the vehicle, or to other passengers. When not in use, either
remove the seat and or base from the vehicle or make sure
that both are securely belted to the vehicle according to these
instructions.
• Toys or other objects attached to carry handle can cause injury
in a crash. Never attach toys or other objects to handle when in
vehicle.
• The Car Seat may become very hot if left in direct sunlight. Your
child may suffer burns from hot components. Always check the
Car Seat for hot surfaces that may come into contact with your
child before placing your child in the Car Seat. We suggest that
you cover the Car Seat with a blanket or towel if it will be subject
to direct sunlight while you are away from the vehicle.
• Discontinue use of the Car Seat and Base after six (6) years from
the date of manufacture. The date of manufacture can be found
on the label located on the underside of the Car Seat or Base.
When discarding an out of date seat, please ensure that someone
finding the seat will be unable to use it. We suggest that you
disable the seat by removing the pad and harness and discarding
the pieces at different times.
6.4 About Use as a Carrier
Never Leave Your Child Unattended, even if they are asleep. Very
often when you arrive at your destination you will find that your
child has fallen asleep in the Seat. Do not leave the child unat-
tended, even for a minute. Your child can tip or move the carrier
by their movements, kicking or grabbing on to their surroundings.
If the carrier tips over, your child can suffocate from the surface
that the seat is on as well as from the pressure on their chest from
the safety harness. In addition, if the carrier is placed too upright,
the child’s head can fall forward and cause the child to have
difficulty breathing.
