More children are killed every year as pas-
sengers in car crashes than by any other type
of injury. To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH, read this owner’s manual and your vehicle
owner’s manual before installing and using this child
restraint. Using a child restraint makes a big difference.
By properly using this child restraint and following
these instructions (and the instructions that accom-
pany your vehicle), you will greatly reduce the risk of
serious injury or death to your child from a crash. Do
not be misled by the commonly used term “safety
seat;” no restraint system can prevent all injuries in all
crashes. Many properly restrained adults and children
are injured in motor vehicle crashes, including rela-
tively minor crashes. A properly used child restraint is
the best way to minimize injuries to your child and to
increase the chances for your child’s survival in most
crashes.
