Thank you for choosing this child restraint. The DJG family is commit-
ted to creating child restraints with the most comfort and convenience 
available today.
Remember, parents are a child’s first teachers and examples. If you 
always buckle your seat belt, your child will think it is the natural thing 
to do. Make it a firm rule that the vehicle does not go until everyone is 
buckled up. Make no exceptions.
No one can predict if use of a child restraint will prevent injury or death 
in a particular crash. However, when combined with careful driving, 
proper use of a child restraint can lower a child’s risk of injury or death 
in most crashes.
Your child’s safety is worth the time it will take to read and follow these 
instructions. After reading, if you still have questions or have any con-
cerns with this child restraint, please contact our Consumer Relations

1.

 Locate a Child Safety Seat Inspection Station for hands on 

training on how to use your child restraint:

 

Visit your local Child 

Passenger Inspection Station or go to http://www.safercar.gov/cpsApp/
cps/index.htm to fi nd your closest station.

2.

 If the child restraint buckle or harness release lever sticks 

or you cannot get the straps tight enough around child: 

DO 

NOT LUBRICATE. Check around lever and retractor for dropped food, 
sticky spilled drinks, dirt, leaves, etc. Clean with warm water and/or 
remove object with tweezers. If you cannot get the harness to adjust 
and remain tight with the buckle securely locked, do not use the child 
restraint.

3. 

If you cannot insert the buckle tongues into buckle, switch 

sides and try again. 

4.

 If your harness twists: 

Straighten the harness each time you 

put your child in the child restraint to help prevent twisting. Lock the 
buckle and tighten harness so it will be ready for next use
