Thank you for choosing this car seat, referred to throughout 
this manual as a child restraint. Dorel Juvenile Group, (DJG) 
is committed to creating convenient, comfortable, and 
dependable products for children.

No one can predict if use of a child restraint will prevent injury 
or death in a particular crash. However, combined with careful 
driving, proper use of a child restraint can lower a child’s risk 
of injury or death in most crashes.

Your child’s safety is worth the time it will take to read, 
understand and follow the instructions and warnings. 

After reading if you still have questions or concerns with 
the child restraint please contact our Consumer Relations 
Department.

On the back of the shell there is an expiry date for use of 
this child restraint. Do not use this seat after the expiry date.

Thank You...
