IMPORTANT WARNINGS

WARNING

DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY CAN OCCUR

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND THE PRODUCT

LABELS CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOUR CHILD.

Take Time to Read This User Guide

• Carefully read and understand all instructions and warnings in this User Guide. Your child’s safety depends on
you knowing how to setup, install and use this Child Restraint properly.

• Before installing this Child Restraint in a vehicle, be sure to also check the vehicle owner’s manual for
information on proper installation.

• NEVER allow others to use this Child Restraint until they have read and understood all instructions in this
User Guide.

Make Sure Child Fits This Child Restraint

IMPORTANT WARNINGS

WARNING

DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY CAN OCCUR

Secure Child Properly

• Snugly adjust the belts provided with this child restraint around your child. A loose harness could cause the
child to be ejected in a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash, resulting in serious injury or death.

A snug strap should not allow any slack. It lies in a relatively straight line without sagging.
It does not press on the child’s flesh or push the child’s body into an unnatural position.

• NEVER use clothing or blankets that interfere with fastening or tightening the harness. An unsecured child
could be ejected in a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash!

To keep child warm, place a blanket over child and restraint AFTER you have properly secured
child in harness.

• ALWAYS check to make sure buckle is securely latched. If buckle separates, child could be killed or seriously injured.

• NEVER leave child unattended. Do not allow children to play in or around the Child Restraint.

• ALWAYS keep child properly secured in harness whenever child is in carrier.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS

WARNING

DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY CAN OCCUR

Install Child Restraint Correctly

• NEVER PLACE THIS CHILD RESTRAINT IN VEHICLE SEATING LOCATION

WITH A FRONTAL AIR BAG, UNLESS THE AIR BAG CAN BE TURNED OFF.

If the airbag inflates, it can cause serious injury or death to your child. For vehicles
with side air bags, refer to your vehicle owners manual for information on your
child restraint installation.

• ALWAYS install this Child Restraint in a back seat if possible.

According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating
positions rather than in the front seat.

• NEVER install in a rear facing, side facing or on the back of a folded down vehicle seat.

• ALWAYS secure this Child Restraint with the vehicle’s child restraint anchorage system (LATCH) if available

OR with a vehicle seat belt.

• ALWAYS install rear-facing when using this Child Restraint in a vehicle. Your child could be killed or seriously

injured if you install this restraint forward-facing.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS

WARNING

DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY CAN OCCUR

Install Child Restraint Correctly

• BEFORE each use, ALWAYS check to make sure restraint is tightly secured in the vehicle seat.

• NEVER use Child Restraint in a vehicle seating position where it cannot be secured tightly. A loosely

installed child restraint will not protect your child in a crash.

• Never leave carrier or base unsecured in your vehicle even when it is unoccupied. It could injure other

occupants in a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash.

• DO NOT install this child restraint using an inflatable seat belt. The interaction of the inflatable portion
of the vehicle’s belt with this child restraint can result in serious injury or death. Install using LATCH
instead, or move the car seat to a position with a suitable seat belt type.

• To prevent ejection or breathing difculties, proper recline is required. When installing the Child
Restraint, check the bubble level on the base. Refer to pages 26-27 to make sure your child meets the
requirements.

• Make sure nothing interferes with carrier attachment to base. ALWAYS check attachment.

• ONLY use Chicco KeyFit/KeyFit 30 infant carriers with KeyFit/KeyFit 30 bases.

• DO NOT use Chicco KeyFit/KeyFit 30 infant carriers with Chicco Fit 2 bases.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS

WARNING

DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY CAN OCCUR

Ensure Child’s Safety When Using Child Restraint

• NEVER leave child unattended.

• SUFFOCATION HAZARD: Infant carrier can roll over on soft surfaces and suffocate child. NEVER place

carrier on beds, sofas or other soft surfaces.

• STRANGULATION HAZARD: Children have STRANGLED in loose or partially buckled harness straps.

Fully restrain the child even when carrier is used outside the vehicle.

• Fall Hazard: Child's activity can move carrier. NEVER place carrier on counter tops, tables, or any other

elevated surface.

• Do not use the infant carrier if it is damaged or broken.

• BE SURE handle is locked in the “carry position” before lifting carrier by handle. An unlocked handle could

move unexpectedly, causing injury to child.

• NEVER place carrier in top of shopping cart. Carrier will not be secure and could fall causing injury to child.

• ALWAYS check buckle and other parts for hot surfaces. A hot surface could burn child! Cover unoccupied

12

carrier with blanket when leaving in a vehicle exposed to sunlight or high temperatures.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS

WARNING

DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY CAN OCCUR

Check Condition of Restraint

• DO NOT use if the Harness or LATCH straps are cut, frayed or damaged.

• DO NOT use this Child Restraint if it is more than 6 years old. Check manufacturer’s label on

underside of Child Restraint for the “Do Not Use After” date.

• DO NOT use any accessories, pads or products not included with this Child Restraint, unless
approved by Chicco USA. Doing so will void the warranty of this Child Restraint.

• You MUST replace this Child Restraint if it has been involved in a crash, even if you cannot see visible
damage. A damaged Child Restraint may not protect your child in a future crash.

• Do not modify your Child Restraint.

• For proper removal and installation of the harness straps contact Chicco USA for additional instructions.

• Do not use Child Restraint if any component is damaged, broken, or missing parts.

Call 1-877-424-4226 to find out if the damaged part or parts can be replaced.

13

BEST PRACTICES

• Ensure all vehicle occupants are properly restrained before traveling. Unrestrained
occupants can be thrown around and may be seriously injured or seriously injure other
occupants in a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash.

• Do not leave loose objects, such as books, bags, etc., in the back of the vehicle. In the
event of a sharp turn, sudden stop, or crash, loose objects can be thrown around and
possibly cause serious injury to vehicle occupants.

• Cover the Child Restraint when the vehicle is parked in sunlight. Parts of a Child Restraint
can become very hot if left in the sun. Contact with these parts can burn a child’s skin.
Always check the surface of any metal or plastic parts before putting your child in the
Child Restraint.

• To avoid strangulation, Do not allow children to play with vehicle seat belts. If possible,
move unused belts out of reach.

• Do not use anything to raise the Child Restraint off the vehicle seat. In a sharp turn,
sudden stop, or crash, the Child Restraint could slide and potentially cause serious injury.

• Never use a second-hand Child Restraint with an unknown history.

• Never use any accessories that are not included with this child restraint, unless specifically

14

approved by Chicco. For more information, go to www.chiccousa.com/accessories.

Harness Straps must be snug. If you can pinch a fold in the strap at the shoulders, the



harness is too loose. A snug strap should not allow any slack. It lies in a relatively straight
line without sagging. It does not press on the child’s flesh or push the child’s body into an
unnatural position.

To ensure a better fit for smaller infants, the Newborn Positioner may be needed. Never



place extra padding under or behind the child. Only use the Newborn Positioner. Never use
Newborn Positioner if child weighs more than 11 pounds.

Straps must lay flat, free of twists and centered on top of the child’s shoulders.



Check the height of the Harness Straps: Position the Harness Straps



at or just below the child’s shoulders.
