• DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THIS INFANT RESTRAINT
AND BASE UNTIL YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND THE
INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL AND IN YOUR VEHICLE
OWNER’S MANUAL. DO NOT let others install or use the
infant restraint unless they understand how to use it.
• FAILURE TO PROPERLY USE THIS INFANT RESTRAINT
AND BASE INCREASES THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY
OR DEATH IN A SUDDEN STOP OR CRASH. Your child can
be injured in a vehicle even if you are not in a crash. Sudden
braking and sharp turns can injure your child if the infant
restraint is not properly installed or if your child is not properly
secured in the infant restraint.
• PLACE THIS INFANT RESTRAINT IN A REAR-FACING
POSITION when using it in the vehicle.
• DO NOT PLACE THIS INFANT RESTRAINT
IN A VEHICLE SEATING LOCATION THAT
HAS A FRONT AIR BAG. If the air bag

force and cause serious injury or death to your
child. Check vehicle owner’s manual for
information about side air bags and infant
restraint installation.
