1.
Place the booster seat on the vehicle seat.
2.
Set the child in the booster seat.
Make sure the child’s back and bottom are flat against
the back and bottom surfaces of the booster seat.
3.
Adjust the back of the booster, if necessary.
Adjust the backrest so the shoulder belt guides are
level with the top of the child’s shoulders. This will
cause the shoulder belt to properly lay midway
between the child’s shoulder and neck (see Adjusting
the Backrest, page 15).
4.
Adjust the armrest, if necessary.
Adjust the armrests to the most comfortable level for
the child (see Adjusting the Armrests, page 15).
5.
Secure the child and booster seat to the vehicle seat.
Pivot the armrests up out of the way. Stretch the lap/
shoulder belt across the child and fasten the buckle.
Make certain the shoulder belt is threaded through
the shoulder belt guide. Pivot the armrests back down.
6.
Check your work.
Make sure the lap belt is stretched low and snug
across the child’s hips, beneath the armrests, and
fastened into the buckle. The shoulder belt must cross
the child midway between his/her shoulder and neck.
IMPORTANT
Always secure the booster seat with the vehicle seat
belts when not occupied. An unsecured booster
seat can fly into and injure other occupants in the
event of a crash.
