Pediatrics, these infants may be at increased risk of suffering breathing
or other difficulties if improperly reclined or positioned in a car seat.
Have your physician or hospital staff evaluate your infant in this car seat
before you and your infant leave the hospital. If your infant is not able to
travel in a reclined position, DO NOT use this car seat. Use a car bed for
your infant.
