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

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

Your infant’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 infant restraint please contact our Consumer Relations 
Department.

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

Thank You...
