WARNINGS- Prevent serious injury or death:

(continued)

Failure to follow these instructions and child restraint labels can result in child striking the vehicle’s interior during a sudden stop or crash. Secure child restraint with a vehicle seat belt or LATCH that is properly routed as shown in this manual.

Select a suitable location for the child restraint in your vehicle.

Choose the correct mode of use for the child restraint depending on your child’s size. Infants less than 20 lbs. (9.1kg) must use this child restraint rear-facing.

Serious crippling injury or death can result if infant faces front of vehicle.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that children be rear-facinguntil age 2 or until they reach the maximum rear-facingheight and weight rating for their seat.

Vehicle seat belt system MUST hold child restraint securely. Not all vehicle seat belts can be used with a child restraint.

If vehicle seat belt does not hold child restraint securely, read “Vehicle Seat Belts” section.
