child restraint system.
• This child restraint system is not for use in the home, in boats, or other
non-certied applications.
• The back seat of vehicle is the safest location for a properly installed child

• When using in a vehicle with airbags, refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual

Make sure all users fully understand proper use of this child restraint
system in a vehicle.
