3.2 About Using this Safety Seat in Your Vehicle

!YOUR CHILD CAN BE INJURED in a vehicle even if you are not in a crash. Common events such as sudden braking and sharp turns can injure your child if the safety seat is not properly installed or if your child is not properly secured in the safety seat.

!THERE ARE MANY KINDS of vehicles, seat belt systems, and occupant protection systems. As a result, it is not possible for this manual to tell you everything you need to know about putting this safety seat in your vehicle. You must carefully follow the instructions provided by your vehicle manufacturer, in addition to the information in this manual.

!SOME VEHICLES do not have any safe location for this safety seat, and many vehicles have seat belt systems that must not be used with the safety seat because those systems will not safely hold the safety seat in place. Again, you must refer to both this manual and your vehicle owner’s manual for complete information.

!NEVER COMBINE another manufacturer’s base or safety seat with a Graco base or safety seat. Call Graco for additional or replacement items.

!THIS SAFETY SEAT conforms to all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.

!THIS SAFETY SEAT is certified for use in Motor Vehicles and Aircraft.
