Thank you for choosing the Fisher-Price
®
Safe Embrace®Booster Car Seat. Before
you use the booster car seat, please take
time to read and understand this manual
completely. DO NOT allow others to use
this booster car seat until they understand
these instructions for proper use. Your child’s
safety depends on you!
No one can predict when the use of a car
seat will prevent injury or death. When
used properly, this booster car seat will better
restrain your child in your vehicle by allowing
you to properly position the vehicle lap and
shoulder belt. The use of a properly positioned
lap and shoulder belt in a rear vehicle seating
location will reduce the risk of injury in a
sudden stop or crash.

WARNING
Booster Car Seat

Proper installation and use depends on you! If you do
not follow the instructions in this manual and the labels
on the booster car seat, paying particular attention to the
warning statements, your child could be at risk of striking
the vehicle’s interior during a sudden stop or crash,
resulting in serious injury or death.
USE ONLY the vehicle’s lap and shoulder belt system when restrain-
ing the child in this booster car seat.Using a lap belt only will still
allow your child’s head to move forward in a sudden stop
or crash, possibly causing your child’s head to strike the vehicle’s
interior or your child’s knees hard enough to cause injury or death.
NEVER leave an unsecured booster car seat in your vehicle.
If left unsecured, even when not occupied, the booster car seat
could injure other occupants in a sudden stop or crash.
NEVER put anything on your vehicle seat (such as a cushion)
to raise the booster car seat. This will create too much slack
in the vehicle belt system. In a sudden stop or crash, a loose
vehicle belt system will not be able to properly restrain
your child.
NEVER use the booster car seat after it is involved in a crash.
A crash can cause damage to the booster car seat that you
cannot see.
NEVER allow the shoulder belt to be moved off of your child’s
shoulder. It is critical that your child not move the shoulder
belt out of position after you have adjusted it.

Accident statistics show that children are
safer
when properly restrained
in rear vehicle seating locations than in front seating locations.
Only use the front seat when no acceptable rear seating location is available. If the front seating location is equipped with an airbag, but must be
used, adjust the vehicle seat as far back from the dashboard as possible.
Please refer to your vehicle owner’s manual regarding front seat child
restraint use.
