Use only with children whose height is between 38 and 60 inches (97 and
152 cm).
DO NOT use this booster seat without the backrest unless it is used in a
seating position with a vehicle headrest.
DO NOT use this booster seat as a backless booster unless proper vehicle-
belt placement can be achieved.
Use only the vehicle’s lap-and-shoulder-belt system when restraining a
child in this booster seat.
Follow all instructions on this child restraint and in the written instructions.
To ensure proper restraint use, keep and store this user guide under the
base of the seat.
Register your child restraint with the manufacturer.
Use restraint forward facing only!
This booster seat must not be used in the home, in boats, or other non-
certified applications.
Do not use any part of this booster seat with other seat cushions or back
rests.
Secure booster seat even when unoccupied. In a crash, an unsecured
booster seat may injure vehicle occupants.
This booster seat is not compatible with vehicle child-restraint anchorage
systems (LATCH).
Do not use this booster seat with two-point vehicle belts (lap-belt only or
shoulder-belt only). Your child would be seriously injured in the event of a

DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY can occur.
WARNING!

Based on crash statistics, the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration recommends that parents select the rear seat as the safest
location for a properly installed booster seat. Please study the section on
Vehicle Safety Belts in this booklet to ensure the child’s safety. If in doubt
about installing this booster seat, consult the vehicle owner’s manual.
The primary protection for occupants of a vehicle in a collision is the
structure of the vehicle itself; a booster seat will not protect a child when
the vehicle is seriously impacted. However, correctly installed, a booster
seat will substantially improve the chances for survival in most crashes.
Make sure all users fully understand the correct ways to use this booster
seat in a vehicle.
Do not, except as described in this book, attempt to disassemble or modify
any part of the booster seat or vehicle belts.
Do not leave loose objects, e.g. books, bags, etc., in the back of a vehicle.
In the event of a sudden stop, loose objects will keep moving, potentially
causing serious injuries.
Do not leave folding vehicle seats unlatched. In the event of a sudden stop,
a loose seat back could prevent the booster seat from protecting the child
as well as it should.
Do not use anything to raise the booster seat off the vehicle seat.
Do not allow children to play with this booster seat.
Do not leave children alone in a vehicle, even for a short time.
WARNING!
DO NOT place a child restraint
in the front seat of a vehicle with
a passenger air bag. DEATH or
SERIOUS INJURY can occur. The
back seat is the safest place for
children under 12.
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY can occur.

Safety Information
• Children who weigh 40 pounds (18 kg) or less are best protected in
a restraint with a five-point harness. Britax recommends that children
remain in a restraint with a five-point harness until reaching the
maximum weight or height allowed.
• Set a good example by always wearing your seat belt. Make it a firm
rule that the vehicle does not move until everyone is buckled up making
no exceptions.
• Cover the booster seat with a towel or blanket when the vehicle is
parked in direct sunlight. Parts of the booster seat could become hot
enough to burn the child.
• Store the booster seat in a safe place when not in use. Do not place
heavy objects on top of the booster seat while in storage.
Maximum Height
Child is too tall when top of ears are above
the top of a fully raised headrest.
