Britax Boulevard manual Death or Serious Injury can occur

WARNING!

DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY can occur:

•Infants should remain in a rear-facing child restraint for as long a possible. The American Academy of Pediatrics and Britax recommends rear facing until at least 1 year of age and 20 pounds.

•Use only with children who weigh between 5 and 65 pounds (2.3 and 29 kg.) and whose height is 49 inches (124 cm.) or less. Use rear facing for children 5–33 pounds (2.3–15 kg.) and forward facing to a maximum of 65 pounds (29 kg.).

•Adjust the belts provided with this child restraint so they fit snugly around your child. A snug strap should not allow any slack. It lies in a relatively straight line without sagging. It does not press on the child’s flesh or push the child’s body into an unnatural position.

•Secure the top anchorage strap provided with this child restraint.

•Secure this child restraint with vehicle’s child restraint anchorage system if available or with a vehicle belt.

•Follow all instructions on this child restraint and in the written instructions.

•Register your child restraint with the manufacturer.

•Use vehicle belt (not LATCH connectors) for installations with children weighing more than 48 pounds (21 kg.). Refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual or contact the vehicle manufacturer for maximum weight rating for their LATCH anchors. Unless specified otherwise by vehicle manufacturer, assume a 48-pound child is vehicle LATCH anchor limit.

•HUGS™ pads must be used in forward-facing mode. Removal of HUGS pads is optional for rear-facing mode.
