Dear  Parents,

Thank  you  for  purchasing  the  Compass  

B505C

Booster  Seat.  

We  hope  that  it  will  make  your  child’s  travel  safer,  easier,  

and  more  pleasant.

We  believe  the  

B505C

is  the  easiest  Booster  Seat  to  use.  We  

do  more  testing  than  other  companies  to  make  it  as  safe  as

possible.  And,  we  use  the  latest  methods  to  assure  the  

highest  quality.

Only  Compass  monitors  the  molding  of  every  key  plastic

part.  Our  MoldTrac  technology  allows  us  to  watch  every  part  

as  it  is  molded.  In  addition,  we  place  a  number  on  each  seat  

so  key  parts  can  be  traced.  You  will  find  this  number  on  the  

bottom  of  your  seat.

We  have  tried  very  hard  to  keep  our  instructions  simple  and  

understandable.  We  apologize  for  beginning  our  instructions  

with  so  many  warnings  but  they  are  very  important  for  you  to

properly  restrain  your  child.  Read  and  understand  all  of  the  

instructions  and  warnings.  The  safety  of  your  child  depends  

on  it!

If  you  have  any  questions  or  need  assistance,  please  contact

the  

Compass  Staff  at  1-­888-­899-­2229

Section  1  -­  Introduction

Keep  this  instruction  manual  for  future  use.

Store  in  pocket  on  back  of  Booster  Seat.

No  car  seat  can  guarantee  protection  from  injury  

in  every  situation,  but  proper  use  helps  reduce  

the  risk  of  serious  injury  or  death.
