sAdjust the harness to fit the clothes the child is wearing. Remove bulky coats and/or jackets before putting the child in the child seat.

sCover the child seat when the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight. Parts of the child seat could become hot enough to burn a child.

sStore the child seat in a safe place when it is not being used. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of the child seat.

sDo not, except as described in this booklet, attempt to disassemble any part of the child seat or change the way its harness or the vehicle’s seat belts are used.

sDo not leave loose objects, e.g. books, bags, etc., in the back of a vehicle. In the event of a sudden stop, loose objects will keep moving, potentially causing serious injuries.
