LATCH Warnings
– Continued
For 5-point Harness and Booster Use
•
Center installation in a nonstandard LATCH position:
Center installation of this child restraint is permitted
using inner Lower Anchor Bars from the outside
seating positions if (1) your vehicle manual allows such
installation; and (2) the inner Lower Anchor Bars from
the outside seating positions are 11-20 inches apart.
When used as a belt-positioning booster in the center
position, ensure the lap and shoulder vehicle belts
properly fit your child.
Tether Strap Warnings
• To avoid a strangulation hazard, you
MUST
tightly roll
or fold excess or unused tether strap and secure with a
rubber band. Attach the tether hook to the storage clip
when not in use (p.
). This will keep an unused
tether from hitting someone during a crash.
Additional Warnings
• In hot or sunny weather,
ALWAYS
check the areas of the
child restraint that may contact your child (e.g., buckle,
buckle tongues, etc.) for hot areas before placing him/her
into the child restraint. The child could be burned. Cover
the child restraint with a light colored blanket when you
leave the vehicle.
• This child restraint must be securely fastened to the
vehicle,
even when unoccupied
, using the vehicle seat
belts or lower anchor connectors. An unsecured child
restraint may injure someone if a crash occurs.
•
DO NOT
use the cup holders to store cans or hard
cups. Only for use with soft cups (such as styrofoam
or paper).
•
DO NOT
place any cups that contain hot liquids in the
cup holders.
•
DO NOT
attach additional padding, toys, or other devices
not made by Evenflo or described in these instructions
for the child restraint. Items not tested with the child
restraint could injure the child. Additional pads or pillows
may interfere with the function of the harness system, or
cause breathing problems if the child’s head falls forward,
increasing the risk of serious injury or death.
• In cold weather,
DO NOT
dress the child in bulky clothing
like snowsuits if the child is riding in a child restraint.
Bulky coats/snowsuits make it difficult to properly tighten
the harness to the child, which may allow the child to be
ejected from the restraint during a crash. If necessary,
place a blanket over the harnessed child without
interfering with the child restraint harness system.
