Page 4

WARNINGS - Prevent serious injury or death:

Failure to follow these instructions

and car seat labels can result in child

striking the vehicle’s interior during

a sudden stop or crash. Secure car

seat with a vehicle seat belt or LATCH

that is properly routed as shown in

this manual.

Select a suitable location for the car

seat in your vehicle.

Choose the correct mode of use for

the car seat depending on your

child’s size. Infants less than 20 lbs.

(9.1 kg) must use this car seat

rear-facing. Serious crippling injury

or death can result if infant faces

front of vehicle. The American

Academy of Pediatrics recommends

that children should be at least one

year of age before being positioned

forward facing.

Vehicle seat belt system MUST hold

car seat securely. Not all vehicle seat

belts can be used with a car seat.

If vehicle seat belt does not hold car

seat securely, read “Vehicle Seat

Belts” section.

DO NOT use rear-facing child

restraint in a vehicle seating

position equipped with an air bag.

Child’s head and neck may be

seriously injured when an inflating

air bag hits back of child restraint.

Never put a car seat in a front

vehicle seat unless recommended

by vehicle owner’s manual.

National Highway Traffic Safety

Administration (NHTSA) alerts

vehicle owners that according to

accident statistics, children up to

age 12 are safer in the back seat.

For vehicles with air bags, refer to

vehicle owner’s manual for car seat

installation information.
