SEAT BELT WARNINGS

CAUTION:
It is important for the child to sit properly within the vehicle seat belts.
When the vehicle belt is buckled, the lap belt should be low on the hips, just touching
the thighs, and the shoulder belt should lie across the middle of the shoulder. If the
child leans out or moves the belt behind the back or places it under the arm, it will not
provide the intended restraint.
2. 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.
4. 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.
