height, AND
who is at least one year old and can sit upright
unassisted, AND
whose shoulders are below top harness slots. If

child increases the risk of serious injury or death in
the event of a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash. The
harness straps must be properly adjusted to fit your
child according to the following instructions.
