NOTE: The warnings on this page are required by the Australian and New Zealand Standard AS/

NZS 1754 for this type of child restraint. Other warnings specific to this particular child restraint 

will be found on the following pages and throughout these instructions.

This Child Restraint is:

To be used only in a rearward-facing position until the infant’s shoulders reach 

the lower shoulder height marker (approximately 12 months of age). Then to 

be used in a forward-facing position until the child’s shoulders reach the upper 

shoulder height marker (approximately 4 years of age).

Continue to use this child restraint until the child reaches this limit.

Do not use forward facing until child’s shoulders are above the lower shoulder 

height marker.

Infants are at risk of serious injury if they face forward too early.

Children are at risk of serious injury if they move to booster seats too early.

Children who have outgrown this restraint are safest in a larger child restraint 

with an in-built harness or a booster seat until their shoulders reach the upper 

shoulder height marker of the restraint.

TO BE USED WITH A LAP-SASH/LAP ONLY SEAT BELT IN THE BACK OF MOST 

CARS WITH FORWARD FACING SEATS.

When installed rearward facing this restraint is 750 mm long, 500 mm wide and 520 

mm high. Check the measurement between the front of the seat back of the rear seat 

and all front seats in the car in which the restraint is intended to be used to ensure 

the space available is sufficient.

Ensure that children have adequate ventilation and shade when in the vehicle.

Do not use seat belt extenders if the car seat belt is not long enough to secure the 

child restraint. If the vehicle seat belt is not long enough to secure the restraint seek 

advice from a child restraint fitter.

Read carefully the whole of the instructions for the installation, and in the event of 

doubt about the method of installation, consult the child restraint manufacturer or 

agent, or a child restraint fitting station authorized by the relevant transport authority, 

or in New Zealand, consult the agent for the vehicle.
