Safeline Sit'n'Stroll manual Installing the Sit’n’Stroll in the Vehicle, Rear Facing

Page 13

Placing your child in the forward-facing position before

he or she is over one year old and over 20 pounds, places your child at serious risk. Before placing your child in the forward-facing position, consider both the weight and age guidelines for the forward-facing postion. Consult with your physician to determine the individual needs of your child.

Installing the Sit’n’Stroll™ in the Vehicle

Rear Facing

Do not use this child restraint rear facing in the front seat of a vehicle that has a passenger side airbag unless the airbag is deactivated. Airbags inflate from 100-200 mph (161-323 kph). Such a great force hitting a rear facing child restraint may severely injure or kill an infant.

If, after installing the Sit’n’Stroll™ , it is not tight enough, move it to another seating location. If it still cannot be secured tightly, contact your vehicle dealer and request that a manual seat belt system be installed.

There are some vehicle seat belt systems which will not securely restrain the Sit’n’Stroll™ . Follow the instruc- tions in this manual and in the vehicle manual exactly to assure correct installation.

Never use only the top tether to install the Sit’n’Stroll™ . It is necessary to use the vehicle seat belt system with the top tether. Serious injury or death could result if only the top tether is used.

If you do not use the top tether, remove the tether from the Sit’n’Stroll™ Tips and store in a secure location. An unsecured top tether could cause

injury if not properly stored.

Check your vehicle to determine which type of seat belt system you have. Some vehicles have more than one type of belt system depending on the seating position. The center rear position may have a lap only belt while the side seating locations may have a lap-shoulder system. If you are not sure which system you have, check your vehicle owner’s manual or contact your vehicle dealer or manu- facturer.
