WARNING

Death or Serious Injury Can Occur

Some vehicle seat belts cannot securely hold the Orbit Base. The
vehicle seat belt must hold a child restraint system tightly at all times.

There are many types of vehicle seat belts. Different types of seat belts may
even be used at different seating locations within the same vehicle.

If the vehicle seat belt does not remain tightly adjusted around the Orbit Base
or the Orbit Base can move more than 1 inch in any direction, your child could
be seriously injured in a sharp turn, sudden stop, or crash. If the Orbit Base is
loose, move the Orbit Base to another seating location and re-install.

Your vehicle owner’s manual will have information on which vehicle seat belts in
your vehicle can be used with a child restraint system. If in doubt, contact the
vehicle manufacturer for guidance.
