This product fulfills the requirements of the U.S. Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards and is certified for use in motor vehi-
cles. It is only intended for use as a forward facing child seat
for children who are at least one year of age and weigh
between 22 and 80 lbs. It is not to be used at home, in boats,
or other non-certified applications. This restraint is not certi-
fied for aircraft use because it is too wide for aircraft seats.
Please make sure that you read and understand this informa-
tion booklet before using this product. It is recommended that
you store this booklet in the pouch provided on the rear of the
restraint for further use and that you consult it often to ensure
that you are using the restraint correctly.
If a child restraint is older than six years or has been in a severe
crash (i.e. main vehicle body structure distorted) you should
discontinue use and dispose of the restraint. This ensures that
no hidden damage or deterioration has occurred and that the
restraint is not out of date in protection capability.
DO NOT use this product in the home. It has not been designed
for home use and should only be used in a motor vehicle.
DO NOT use anything, e.g. a cushion or coat, to raise the
restraint off the vehicle seat. In an accident, it could slide and be
unable to protect your child as well as it should.
DO NOT, except as described in this booklet, attempt to disas-
semble any part of the Super Elite or change the way its harness
or your vehicle seat belts are used.
DO NOT leave loose objects, e.g. books, bags, etc., in the back
of your vehicle. in the event of a sudden stop, loose objects will
keep moving, potentially causing serious injuries.
DO NOT leave folding vehicle seats unlatched. In the event of
a sudden stop, a loose seat back could prevent the child restraint
from protecting your child as well as it should.
DO NOT leave children alone in a vehicle, even for a short time.
DO NOT allow children to play with this product.
Each time you place your child in the Super Elite, check that it
is still secure and that the seat belts are tight. If there is any
slack in the belts, retighten them before starting your journey.
Make sure that you adjust the harness to fit the clothes your
child is wearing – a fitting for winter clothes will be too slack for
a child wearing summer clothes.
Cover this product if you vehicle is left sitting in direct sunlight.
Parts can become hot to the touch in sunny weather.
Store the Super Elite in a safe place when it is not being used.
Avoid placing heavy objects on top of it.
