• When using this restraint rear-facing,
DO NOT
loosen
the vehicle seat belt to provide more leg room, as
this may keep the child restraint from protecting your
child.
• Fold-down armrests could pose a hazard to a rear-
facing child in certain types of collisions. Consult your
vehicle owner’s manual before installing any rear-
facing child restraint in front of a fold-down armrest.
•
DO NOT
use the tether strap when the child restraint
is installed rear-facing.
• The headrest on the vehicle seat that the child faces
when sitting rear-facing should be placed in the lowest
position. The vehicle seat back that the child faces
must be fully padded and free of any hard objects.
• Cup holders
MUST
remain attached to the restraint
AT ALL TIMES
in rear-facing mode.
•
IMPORTANT:
Infants may have difficulty breathing
when in an upright seated position. Make sure they
recline enough for their head to lie back comfortably
and safely. Failure to properly recline the child restraint
could increase the child’s risk of serious injury or
death.
•
Adjust or remove the vehicle headrest in the
seat where the child restraint is to be installed,
so the back of the child restraint rests against the
vehicle seat back.
• The headrest on the vehicle seat in front of the child
should be put in its lowest position. The vehicle seat
back that the child faces must be fully padded and
free of any hard objects.
