SafetyInformation

The primary protection for occupants of a vehicle in a collision is the body of the vehicle itself, and a child restraint will not protect a child when the vehicle is seriously impacted. However, correctly installed, this restraint will substantially improve the chances for survival in most accidents. Make sure that you fully understand the correct way to use this child restraint in your vehicle.

DO NOT place any child restraint in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger air bag unless the air bag is turned off. DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY can occur. The back seat is the safest place for children under 12.

Owners of vehicles with air bags should refer to their owner’s manual for child restraint installation instructions.

Britax recommends that all child restraints be installed in the rear seat.

Install this child restraint only in vehicle seats which face forward! Do not install this seat on vehicle seats facing sideways or backwards!
