• DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THIS BOOSTER 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 booster seat unless they
understand how to use it.
• FAILURE TO PROPERLY USE THIS BOOSTER
SEAT INCREASES THE RISK OF SERIOUS
INJURY OR DEATH IN A SHARP TURN, SUDDEN
STOP OR CRASH. Your child can be injured in a
vehicle even if you are not in a crash. Sudden
braking and sharp turns can injure your child if the
booster seat is not properly installed or if your child is
not properly secured in the booster seat.
• According to accident statistics, CHILDREN ARE
SAFER WHEN PROPERLY RESTRAINED IN
REAR VEHICLE SEATING POSITIONS, RATHER
THAN FRONT SEATING POSITIONS. For a vehicle
with a front passenger air bag, refer to your vehicle
owner’s manual as well as these instructions for
booster seat installation.
• NEVER LEAVE YOUR CHILD UNATTENDED.
• NEVER LEAVE A BOOSTER SEAT UNSECURED
IN YOUR VEHICLE. An unsecured booster seat can
be thrown around and may injure occupants in a
sharp turn, sudden stop or crash. Remove it or make
sure that it is securely belted in the vehicle.
• REPLACE THE BOOSTER SEAT AFTER AN
ACCIDENT OF ANY KIND. An accident can cause
damage to the booster seat that you cannot see.
