GENERAL USAGE

•  Follow all instructions on this child restraint and in the written instructions located 

under the base of the seat�

•  Register your child restraint with the manufacturer�

•  Use this booster seat forward-facing only�

Safety Information

•  In a vehicle with rear designated seating positions, vehicle owners should be alerted 

that, according to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in 

the rear seating positions than in the front seating positions� To ensure your child’s 

safety, please study Vehicle Seating Positions on page 24 and consult your vehicle 

owner’s manual�

•  Always make sure the child restraint system is secured to the vehicle, even when 

unoccupied, since in a crash an unsecured child restraint system may injure 

occupants� The unoccupied child seat can be secured to the vehicle by attaching 

the lower connectors to the lower anchors in the vehicle, or by fastening the vehicle 

seatbelt across the unocuppied child seat�

•  To prevent injury due to deterioration, discontinue use of a booster seat that is older 

than ten (10) years or has been in a severe crash (see page 6)� See expiration date on 

Serial Number and Manufactured Date Label located under the base cover�

•  The use of non-Britax covers, inserts, toys, accessories, or tightening devices is 

not approved by Britax� Their use could cause this booster seat not to perform as 

intended in a crash�

•  The primary protection for occupants of a vehicle in a collision is the body of the 

vehicle itself; a child seat will not protect a child when a vehicle is seriously impacted� 

However, correctly installed, a child seat will substantially improve chances for 

survival in most crashes� Make sure all users fully understand the correct ways to use 

this child seat in a vehicle�
