Forward-facing Position Warnings
• Adjust, or remove, the vehicle headrest, in the seat
where the child restraint is to be fastened , so that
the back of the child restraint rests against the vehicle
seat back.
• The headrest on the vehicle seat in front of the child
should be put in its lowest position. The vehicle seat
back that the child faces must be fully padded and
free of any hard objects.
Seat Belt Warnings
• DO NOT use this child restraint in a vehicle with
door-mounted seat belts.
• DO NOT use this child restraint in a vehicle with seat
belts that automatically move along the vehicle frame
when the door is opened. These seat belts will not
hold a child restraint properly.
• If the vehicle seat belts are not routed and fastened
correctly, the child restraint may not protect the child
in a crash.
• DO NOT allow the seat belt release button 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 vehicle seat belts snugly around
the child may result in the child striking the vehicle’s
interior during a sudden stop or crash. Serious injury
or death may occur.
• When using this booster seat, NEVER use a lap belt
only. You MUST use vehicle seat belts that have a
lap/shoulder combination.
• The shoulder belt MUST be routed properly (p. 14).
• DO NOT use this booster seat if the child’s ears are
above the back of the booster seat headrest.
• The shoulder belt MUST NOT cross the child’s neck
or fall off the child’s shoulder. If you cannot adjust
the shoulder belt to properly lay midway between
the child’s shoulder and neck AND at or above the
shoulder
, try another seating location or do not use
the booster seat.
