Section Title
• Harness mode: use only with children who weigh between 11.3 and 29.5 kg
(25 and 65 lbs) and whose height is between 76.2 and 144.8 cm (30 and 57
in.) and are at least 2 years of age.
• Booster mode: use only with children who weigh between 18.1 and 54.4 kg
(40 and 120 lbs) and whose height is between 106.7 and 165.1 cm (42 and
65 in.).
• Use this child seat forward-facing only.
• The positioning block must be rotated to the front of the child seat when used
in harness mode.
• The positioning block must be rotated to the rear of the child seat when used in
booster mode.
• Snugly adjust the belts provided with this child restraint around your child.
• Secure the top tether strap provided with this child seat.
• Even when unoccupied, in harness or booster mode this seat must be secured
to the vehicle by means of a lower connector system if the booster seat is
installed in a seating position that is equipped with a lower universal anchorage
system (LUAS) or by means of a vehicle seat belt if it is installed in a seating
position that is not equipped with a lower universal anchorage system and if
equipped with a tether strap, by means of a tether strap.
• Register your child seat with the manufacturer.
• HUGS™ chest pads must be used in harness mode.
• In booster mode, use only the vehicle’s lap and shoulder belt system when
restraining the child in this booster seat.
• To prevent injury due to deterioration or hidden damage, discontinue use of
this child seat when it is older than nine years or has been in a moderate or
severe crash. See the Serial Number and Manufacture Date Label located on
the child seat (see page 5).
• According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in
a vehicle’s rear seating positions than in the front seating positions.
• The use of non-Britax covers, inserts, toys, accessories, or tightening devices
is not approved by Britax. Their use could cause this child seat to fail Canadian
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or not perform as intended in a crash.
• Never use the harness or adjuster strap to lift or carry this child seat. Doing so
could damage the harness adjuster and webbing. Always carry this child seat
by the shell or tether straps.
• The primary protection for occupants of a vehicle in a collision is the body
of the vehicle itself; a child seat may not protect a child when the vehicle is
seriously im pact ed. However, correctly installed, a child seat will substantially
improve the chances for survival in most crashes.
• For harness mode refer to your vehicle owner’s manual or contact the vehicle
manufacturer for the maximum weight rating for the LUAS anchors in your
vehicle. Use the vehicle seat belt (not lower connectors) for installations with
children who weigh more than the vehicle LUAS anchor limit. Unless specified
otherwise by the vehicle manufacturer, assume a 18.1 kg (40 pound) child is
the vehicle LUAS anchor limit.
• This child seat can only be used in the following classes of vehicles: multi-
purpose passenger vehicles, passenger cars or trucks.
• Follow all instructions on the child seat labels and in this user guide. Failure to
do so may result in death or serious injury.
• Prevent the Side Impact Cushions from being punctured. Puncture damage will
cause the cushions not to perform as intended in a crash.
• When using in a vehicle with airbags, refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for
child seat installation instructions and precautions.
Important Notes
• Verify that the child seat is securely installed and that the harness is properly
adjusted around the child each time the child seat is used.
• Adjust the harness to fit the clothes the child is wearing. Remove bulky coats
and/or jackets before putting the child in the child seat.
• Do not, except as described in this booklet, attempt to disassemble any part of
the child seat or change the way the harness or vehicle’s seat belts are used.
• Do not use anything to raise the child seat off the vehicle seat. In a crash, this
could cause the child seat not to perform as intended.
• This child seat must not be used in the home, in boats, or other non-certified
applications.
• Cover the child seat when the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight. Parts of the
child seat can become hot enough to burn a child.
• Store the child seat in a safe place when it is not being used. Avoid placing heavy
objects on top of it.
• Always check the back seat upon leaving your vehicle to prevent leaving a child
restrained in a child seat alone in the vehicle.
• Do not leave loose objects, e.g. books, bags, etc., in the back of a vehicle. In
the event of a sudden stop, loose objects will keep moving, potentially striking
passengers and causing serious injuries.
• Do not leave folding vehicle seats unsecured. In the event of a sudden stop, a
loose seat back could cause the child seat not to perform as intended.
