D-2 Vehicle Seating Position
Use the child restraint
only on vehicle seats
that face forward. Do not
use on seats that face
the sides or rear of the
vehicle.
Some seating positions in your vehicle may not be safe for
this child restraint. Some vehicles do not have a seating
position that can be used safely with this child restraint. If
you are not sure where to place the child restraint in your
vehicle, consult your vehicle owner’s manual or contact
Dorel Juvenile Group Consumer Relations Dept.
Never place a child rear-facing in a
seating position with an active frontal
airbag. This can result in serious injury
or death.
Safety Tip:
Children are safer
when properly
restrained in rear
seating positions than
in the front seating positions.
According to National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration information, children
in rear seating positions are statistically
safer, whether you have air bags,
advanced air bags, or no air bags at all.
Safety Tip:
To help protect your vehicle seat’s upholstery from
damage, use a single layered towel underneath and
behind child restraint.
To avoid your child being seriously burned,
take the following precautions:
1. Park in the shade or where sun does not directly
hit the child restraint.
2. Cover the child restraint with a sheet or blanket
when not in use.
3. Check for hot seat and buckles before placing
child in child restraint.
