WARNINGS

conjunction with the instructions and
warnings provided by your vehicle
manufacturer. A safety seat that is
improperly installed or utilized, is
inappropriate for your child's height, age,
or weight or does not properly fit the child
may increase the risk of serious injury or
death.

Never let a passenger hold a child on
his or her lap while your vehicle is
moving. The passenger cannot

protect the child from injury in a crash,
which may result in serious injury or death.

Never use pillows, books, or towels
to boost a child. They can slide
around and increase the likelihood

of injury or death in a crash.

WARNINGS

Always restrain an unoccupied child
seat or booster seat. These objects
may become projectiles in a crash or

sudden stop, which may increase the risk
of serious injury.

Never place, or allow a child to place,
the shoulder belt under a child's arm
or behind the back because it

reduces the protection for the upper part
of the body and may increase the risk of
injury or death in a crash.

To avoid risk of injury, do not leave
children or pets unattended in your
vehicle.
