Seat Belt Warnings
Rear-facing and Forward-facing Use Only
•
DO NOT
use this child restraint if it moves more than
25 mm (1 inch) side to side or front to back at either
the rear-facing or forward-facing belt path on the
child restraint. Serious injury or death may result from
poor installation. If you cannot tightly secure the child
restraint, try again or move it to another location.
•
DO NOT
use this child restraint in a seating position
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.
•
DO NOT
use this child restraint in a vehicle equipped
with seat belts that only lock during a sudden stop or
crash (emergency locking retractor – ELR). You must
use a seating location with a locking seat belt. Check
your vehicle owner’s manual to see if you have seat
belts with ELRs.
• 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 vehicle 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 harness or 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.
Booster Use Only

ONLY
the
vehicle’s lap
AND
shoulder belt system
when restraining a child in this

anchorage system (LATCH System) to attach this child
restraint when restraining a child weighing more than
20.4 kg (45 lbs) with the internal harnesses of the
child restraint.

ONLY
as
described in these instructions. Serious injury or death

child restraint to your vehicle seat. It can be used in
place of the seat belts in vehicles with vehicle Lower
Anchor Bars. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for
the locations of the vehicle Lower Anchor Bars.

Your vehicle owner’s manual may refer to this
system as “Universal Anchorage System,” “Lower

vehicle owner’s manual regarding installation of the
child restraint and LATCH. If there is a discrepancy,
follow your vehicle owner’s manual.
