5.0 Important Information
•
NEVER PLACE THIS CHILD RESTRAINT IN
A VEHICLE SEATING
LOCATION THAT HAS A
FRONT AIR BAG.
If an air bag
inflates, it can hit the child and
child restraint with great force
and cause serious injury or death to your child.
Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for infor-
mation about side air bags and child restraint
installation.
• According to accident statistics,
CHILDREN ARE SAFER WHEN PROPERLY
RESTRAINED IN REAR VEHICLE
SEATING POSITIONS, RATHER THAN FRONT
SEATING POSITIONS.
For a vehicle with a front
passenger air bag, refer to your vehicle owner’s
manual as well as these instructions for child
restraint installation. The back seat is the safest
place for children 12 and under.
•
NEVER LEAVE YOUR CHILD UNATTENDED.
•
DO NOT USE THIS
child restraint without

use of this child restraint reduces the risk of
serious injury or death to your child.
•
DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THIS CHILD

STAND THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL
