You will need to use it with certain types of vehicle seat belts. **Vehicles are now (or can be) equipped with tether anchor points behind some seats. A tether anchors the top of the car seat to the body of the vehicle. When used properly with the vehicle seat belt, a tether helps reduce injury in a sudden stop or crash. ***United States Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards have defined a new system for installing car seats in vehicles. The system is called LATCH. LATCH may ONLY be used IN PLACE of vehicle belt if vehicle is equipped with LATCH anchor points. Please refer to vehicle owners manual for LATCH locations in vehicles. 6 4.0 Important Information 4.1 Warnings • DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THIS CAR 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 car seat unless they understand how to use it. • FAILURE TO PROPERLY USE THIS CAR 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 car seat is not properly installed or if your child is not properly secured in the car 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 car seat installation. • NEVER LEAVE YOUR CHILD UNATTENDED. • NEVER LEAVE A CAR SEAT UNSECURED IN YOUR VEHICLE. An unsecured car 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. If not using LATCH, make sure LATCH connectors are properly stored on back of seat. • REPLACE THE CAR SEAT AFTER AN ACCIDENT OF ANY KIND. An accident can cause damage to the car seat that you cannot see. 7 • STOP USING CAR SEAT AND THROW IT AWAY after the date molded into the back of the car seat. • DO NOT MODIFY YOUR CAR SEAT or use any accessories or parts supplied by other manufacturers. • NEVER USE CAR SEAT IF IT HAS DAMAGED OR MISSING PARTS. DO NOT use a cut, frayed or damaged car seat harness, LATCH belt or vehicle seat belt. • THE CAR SEAT CAN BECOME VERY HOT IF LEFT IN THE SUN. Contact with these parts can burn your child’s skin. Always touch the surface of any metal or plastic parts before putting your child in the car seat. • THIS CHILD RESTRAINT CONFORMS to all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and is certified for use in motor vehicles. It is certified for use in Aircraft ONLY when used with the built-in harness. When used as a booster without the harness, this restraint is NOT certified for use in aircraft. • 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. 8 4.2 Height and Weight Limitations FAILURE TO USE CAR SEAT IN A MANNER APPROPRIATE FOR YOUR CHILD’S SIZE MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
