2.4 Life and Condition

of the Car Seat

REPLACE THE CAR SEAT AFTER AN
ACCIDENT
of any kind. An accident can
cause damage to the car seat that you cannot
see.

EVEN IF THE CAR SEAT IS NOT
INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT,
stop using it
and throw it away after the date molded into the
back of the car seat. Example: “Do not use this
child restraint after December 2007.”

DO NOT MODIFY YOUR CAR SEAT or
use any accessories or parts supplied by other
manufacturers. Only make adjustments to the
car seat as recommended in these instructions.

NEVER USE THE CAR SEAT IF IT HAS
DAMAGED OR MISSING PARTS.
Do not
use a cut, frayed or damaged car seat harness or
vehicle seat belt.

NEVER GIVE THIS CAR SEAT TO
SOMEONE ELSE
without also giving them
this manual.

NEVER USE A SECOND-HAND CAR SEAT
or a car seat whose history you do not know.
