1. Warnings to Parents and Other Users

DO NOT install or use this safety seat until you read and understand the

instructions in this manual and in your vehicle owner’s manual. DO NOT let others install or use the safety seat unless they understand how to use it.

Failure to properly use this safety seat increases the risk of serious injury or death in a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash. Your child’s safety depends on you installing and using this safety seat correctly.

Your child’s safety depends on:

1. Choosing a suitable location in your vehicle. Some seating positions, such as those equipped with air bags, may not be safe locations for this safety seat.

2. Inserting the harness straps in the proper slots for your child.

3. Properly securing your child in the safety seat.

3. Important Safety Information

No safety seat can guarantee protection from injury. However, proper use of this safety seat reduces the risk of serious injury or death to your child.

3.1 About Your Child



THIS SAFETY SEAT IS DESIGNED for use only by children who weigh 20 lbs. (9 kg) or less and whose height is 26 inches (66 cm) or less. Using this safety seat with a child who is heavier than 20 lbs. or more than 26 inches in height may increase the risk of serious injury or death. If your baby seems too small for this safety seat, you may want to consider Graco’s Cherish

™

car bed for the first few months.



SOME SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN, such as pre-term babies or those who have tested positive for positional apnea, may be at increased risk of suffering breathing or other difficulties in a safety seat. If your child has special needs, we recommend that you have your physician or hospital staff evaluate your child and recommend the proper safety seat or car bed before using this product.



NEVER LEAVE CHILD UNATTENDED.



DO NOT dress your child in bulky clothing. Use clothing which allows the harness to securely latch between your child’s legs.

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.

3.3 A Warning About Air Bags



NEVER PLACE THIS SAFETY SEAT IN A VEHICLE SEATING LOCATION THAT HAS AN AIR BAG. If an air bag inflates, it can hit

the safety seat with great force and cause serious injury or death to your child. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for information about air bags and child safety seat installation.

3.4 When the Safety Seat is Not Occupied



PARTS OF THE SAFETY SEAT can become very hot if the seat is left in the sun. Contact with these parts can burn your child’s skin. Cover the safety seat with a blanket if it will be exposed to the sun, and always touch the surface of any metal or plastic part before putting your child in the safety seat.



NEVER LEAVE a safety seat or safety seat base unsecured in your vehicle. When you are not using the safety seat, either remove it or make sure that it is securely belted in the vehicle. An unsecured seat can be thrown around and may injure occupants in the event of a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash.



DO NOT PLACE HEAVY OBJECTS on safety seat while in storage. Heavy objects may deform safety seat over a period of time.

3.5 About the Life and Condition of this Safety Seat



REPLACE THE SAFETY SEAT AND BASE after an accident of any kind. An accident can cause damage to the safety seat and base that you cannot see.



EVEN IF THE SAFETY SEAT AND BASE are not involved in an accident, stop using both and throw them away six years after the date of manufacture. The date of manufacture can be found on the serial label located on the underside of the safety seat or base.



DO NOT MODIFY YOUR SAFETY SEAT OR BASE or use any accessories or parts supplied by other manufacturers. Only make adjustments to the safety seat or base as recommended in these instructions.



NEVER USE THE SAFETY SEAT OR BASE if it has damaged or missing parts. Do not use a cut, frayed or damaged safety seat harness or vehicle seat belt.



NEVER GIVE THIS SAFETY SEAT OR BASE to someone else without also giving them this manual.



NEVER USE A SECOND-HAND SAFETY SEAT OR BASE whose history you do not know.

3.6 Warnings About Using the Safety Seat as a Carrier

FALL HAZARD:



Child’s movements can slide carrier. Never place carrier near edges of counter tops, tables or other high surfaces. Always stay within arms reach whenever carrier is not on floor/ground.



Be sure handle locks into position before lifting carrier.

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:



Child can strangle in loose restraint straps. Always use harness, never leave child in carrier when straps are loose or undone.

NEVER LEAVE CHILD UNATTENDED.

USE ONLY WITH STROLLERS that are part of the Graco Travel System.



NEVER PLACE carrier in the top of a shopping cart.

Strings and cords can cause strangulation. Keep strings and cords away from child:



DO NOT place carrier near a window where cords from blinds or drapes can strangle a child.



DO NOT hang strings on or over the carrier.



DO NOT place items with a string around a child’s neck, such as hood strings, pacifier cords, etc.



DO NOT attach strings to toys.

4. Selecting a Suitable Location for the Safety Seat

4.1 Consider These Basic Recommendations

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

Some seating positions in your vehicle may not be safe locations for this safety seat. In fact, some vehicles do not have any seating positions that can be used safely.

Improper placement of the safety seat increases the risk of serious injury or death.

Follow the instructions in this section and in your vehicle owner’s manual to select a location for the safety seat. If you are not sure where to place the safety seat in your vehicle, contact your vehicle manufacturer or Graco Children’s Products Inc., 1-888-224-6549.

We recommend that, whenever possible, you secure the safety seat in the center position of the seat directly behind the front seats

. We also recommend that an adult ride in the rear seat to watch the child. If the driver is the only adult present, a child who must be closely watched may need to ride in the front seat, but should only do so if there is no passenger-side air bag and all of the other vehicle seat and seat belt requirements listed below are met.

4.2 Be Sure Your Vehicle Seat Meets All of These Requirements



NEVER PLACE THIS SAFETY SEAT IN A VEHICLE SEATING LOCATION THAT HAS AN AIR BAG

. If an air bag inflates, it can hit the safety seat with great force and cause serious injury or death to your child. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for information about air bags and child safety seat installation.
