Do not leave children unsupervised in the

severe or even fatal injury to other persons; if

they get out of the vehicle, they could injure

themselves when doing so or be seriously or

even fatally injured by any passing traffic.
Do not expose the child restraint system to

direct sunlight. The child restraint system's

metal parts, for example, could become very

hot, and a child could be burned on these

parts.
