Failure to properly use this booster seat increases the risk
of serious injury or death in a sharp turn, sudden stop or
crash. Your child’s safety depends on you installing and
using this booster seat correctly.
Even if using this booster seat seems easy to figure out
on your own, it is very important to READ THE OWNER’S
MANUAL and the vehicle owner’s manual.
Your child’s safety depends on:
1. Selecting a suitable location for the booster seat in
your vehicle.
2. Placing child in booster seat.
3. Properly securing the booster seat and child in
the vehicle using a seat belt designed to restrain
the booster seat and your child. This booster seat
MUST be used with a lap/shoulder belt. Not all
lap/shoulder belts can be used. NEVER use a
vehicle lap-only belt.
4. Use belt positioner if necessary to adjust vehicle
belt to fit child properly.
