A-2 Registration and Safety Notices
A. Before You Begin
Thank you for choosing this car seat, referred to throughout this manual as a child restraint. The DJG family is committed to creating a child restraint with the most comfort and convenience available today.
Remember, parents are a child’s first teachers and examples. If you always buckle your seat belt, your child will think it is the natural thing to do. Make it a firm rule that the vehicle does not go until everyone is buckled up. Make no exceptions.
No one can predict if use of a child restraint will prevent injury or death in a particular crash. However, combined with careful driving, proper use of a child restraint can lower a child’s risk of injury or death in most crashes.
Your child’s safety is worth the time it will take to read and follow these instructions. After reading, if you still have questions or have any problems with this child restraint, please contact our Consumer Relations Department at:
Dorel Juvenile Group, Inc.

B-3 Child Restraint Use
Failure to follow these warnings can result in the serious injury or death of your child. To help you recognize instructions which are most critical to your child’s safety, we use this symbol:
B-1 Vehicle Seating Position
According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seating positions.
Check the vehicle owner’s manual for more information about air bag/child restraint use.
For vehicles without a back seat, refer to your vehicle owner’s manual.
B-2 Installation in Vehicle
Never take your child out of the child restraint while the vehicle is moving. Never leave child unattended.
Placing your child in a hot child restraint may result in burns.
Do not use a child restraint with damaged or missing parts.
Do not use cut, frayed or damaged harnesses.
Do not lubricate buckles and fasteners.
Do not substitute parts or try to modify the child restraint in any way.
Do not use any child restraint accessory except those approved by Dorel Juvenile Group.
Never allow any child to play with this child restraint; it is not a toy.
Do not remove or cover up any of the warning labels or other labels on the child restraint.
Read all instructions for additional warnings.
B. Safety Information
Check the vehicle belt or LATCH belt before each use. Use only if the belt is tightened properly and securely.
This child restraint should be securely belted in the vehicle even when not in use. In a crash or sudden stop, an unsecured child restraint could injure occupants.
Do not use a child restraint that has been in a crash. You must get a new child restraint.
