Tether Strap Warnings
Forward-facing Use Only
• 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. 13). This will keep an unused tether
from hitting someone during a crash.
WARNING
Additional Warnings
Rear-facing and Forward-facing Use
• 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 holder 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 holder.
• 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.
• Failure to follow installation instructions could result
in serious injury or death. These instructions and the
instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual must be
followed carefully. If there is a conflict between the two,
the vehicle owner’s manual regarding child
restraint installation must be followed.
Safe Practices
• Everyone rides buckled up or the vehicle does not
go.
Make no exceptions for adults or children. If someone
unbuckles, stop the vehicle. Being firm and consistent
from the start will mean fewer discipline problems as
children get older. An unrestrained person can be thrown
into and injure other passengers.
• Many safety advocates and healthcare professionals
recommend that children ride rear-facing for as long as
possible. See limitations recommended on rear-facing use
on the inside front cover.
• NEVER try to tend to a crying baby’s needs while driving.
NEVER take a baby out of a child restraint for comforting
while the vehicle is moving.
• DO NOT allow a child in a vehicle to have objects such
as lollipops or ice cream on a stick. The object can injure
the child if the vehicle swerves or hits a bump.
• DO NOT feed an infant who is riding in a child restraint.
• Put sharp or heavy items in the trunk. Anything loose can
be deadly in a crash.
Additional Warnings – cont.
• 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.
