Rear-facingForward-facingGeneral Important
More children are killed every year as passengers
in car crashes than by any other type of injury. To
reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, read
this owner’s manual and warnings and your vehicle
owner’s manual before installing and using this child
restraint. Using a child restraint makes a big difference.
By properly using this child restraint and following
these instructions (and the instructions that accompany
your vehicle), you will greatly reduce the risk of serious
injury or death to your child from a crash. Do not be
misled by the commonly used term “safety seat”; no
restraint system can prevent all injuries in all crashes.
Many properly restrained adults and children are injured
in motor vehicle crashes, including relatively minor
crashes. A properly used child restraint is the best way
to minimize injuries to your child and to increase the
chances for your child’s survival in most crashes.
