WARNING ! !
Death or Serious Injury Can Occur
Some vehicle seat belts cannot securely hold the Orbit Toddler Car
Seat and Orbit Base. The vehicle seat belt must hold a child restraint
system tightly at all times.
There are many types of vehicle seat belts. Different types of seat belts
may even be used at different seating locations within the same vehicle.
If the vehicle seat belt does not remain tightly adjusted around the carseat
or the Toddler Car Seat can move more than 1 inch in any direction, your
child could be seriously injured in a sharp turn, sudden stop, or crash. If
the Toddler Car Seat is loose, move it to another seating location and re-
install.
Your vehicle owner’s manual will have information on which vehicle seat
belts in your vehicle can be used safely with a child restraint system. If in
doubt, contact the vehicle manufacturer for guidance.
