•
Verify that the child restraint is secure and that the harness is
properly adjusted around your child each time you use the
child restraint.
• Adjust the harness to fit the clothes the child is wearing. The
harness will fit a child in winter clothes differently than a child
in summer clothes.
• Cover the child restraint if your vehicle is parked in direct
sunlight. Parts of the child restraint can become hot enough to
burn a child.
• Store the child restraint in a safe place when it is not being
used. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of it.
•
To prevent injury due to deterioration or hidden damage,
discontinue use of a child restraint that is older than six years
or has been in a severe crash.
• Do not leave children alone in a vehicle, even for a short time.
• Do not, except as described in this booklet, attempt to disas-
semble any part of the child restraint or change the way its
harness or your vehicle restraint 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 allow children to play with the child restraint.
• Do not use anything 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.
