Failure to properly secure your child and the booster seat in your vehicle increases the risk of serious injury or death in the event of a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash. The vehicle restraint straps must be properly positioned to fit your child according to the following instructions and those in your vehicle owner’s manual.

In a crash, the booster seat

provides NO protection for your child unless the vehicle

lap and shoulder belts are properly secured. Use only the vehicle’s lap and shoulder belt system when restraining the child in this booster seat.

NEVER use a vehicle lap-only

belt across front of child; severe abdominal, head and/

or neck injuries or death may result in the event of a sharp

turn, sudden stop or crash.

Vehicle belts MUST lay flat against child and MUST NOT be twisted.
