Check the vehicle belt or UAS belt before each use. Use only if
the belt is tightened properly and securely.
When unoccupied the side-facing car bed must be fi rmly se-
cured to the vehicle with lower universal anchorage system
if available or with a vehicle seat belt. In a crash or sudden
stop, an unsecured car bed could injure the driver or other
occupants in the vehicle.
Always check vehicle owner’s manual for proper use of
vehicle seat belts and the universal anchorage system (UAS)
with your car bed.
In very few vehicles, the car bed cannot be properly installed
because of the type of seat belt system or airbag system.
Always read and follow the vehicle owner’s manual instruc-
tions for child restraint use.
Vehicle Seating Position
Always check vehicle owner’s manual for child restraint use
with side airbags.
For vehicles with no rear seats, check the vehicle owner’s
manual for location and installation of a child restraint.
Use the car bed only on vehicle seats that
face forward.
Do not use on seats that face the sides or
rear of the vehicle.
For vehicles with an airbag, but without a back seat, refer to
your vehicle owner’s manual.
If you are not sure where to place the car bed in your vehicle, consult
your vehicle owner’s manual or contact Dorel Juvenile Group
Consumer Care Department.
Children are safer when properly
restrained in rear seating positions
than in front seating positions.
According to accident statistics,
children in rear seating positions are statistically safer, whether
you have airbags, advanced airbags, or no airbags at all.
To avoid your child being seriously burned, take the following
precautions:
1.
Park in the shade or where sun does not directly hit the car bed.
2.
Cover the car bed with a sheet or blanket when not in use.
3.
Check for hot seat and buckles before placing child in car bed.
To help protect your vehicle seat’s upholstery from damage, use a
single layer towel underneath and behind car bed.
