Failure to properly secure your child and the booster

seat in your vehicle increases the risk of serious

injury or death in the event of a sharp turn, sudden

stop or crash. The vehicle restraint straps must be

properly positioned to fit your child according to the

following instructions and those in your vehicle

owner’s manual.
In a crash, the booster seat

provides NO protection for

your child unless the vehicle

lap and shoulder belts are

properly secured. Use only the

vehicle’s lap and shoulder belt

system when restraining the

child in this booster seat.
NEVER use a vehicle lap-only

belt across front of child;

severe abdominal, head and/

or neck injuries or death may

result in the event of a sharp

turn, sudden stop or crash.
Vehicle belts MUST lay flat

against child and MUST NOT

be twisted.
