Graco Forward Facing Child Restraint - Manual (Page 6)

6
• According to accident statistics, CHILDREN ARE SAFER
WHEN PROPERLY RESTRAINED IN REAR VEHICLE
SEATING POSITIONS RATHER THAN FRONT
SEATING POSITIONS. For a vehicle with a front
passenger air bag, refer to your vehicle owner’s manual
as well as these instructions for child restraint installation.
• NEVER LEAVE YOUR CHILD UNATTENDED.
• NEVER LEAVE A CHILD RESTRAINT UNSECURED IN
YOUR VEHICLE. An unsecured child restraint can be
thrown around and may injure occupants in a sharp turn,
sudden stop or crash. Remove it or make sure that it is
securely belted in the vehicle. If not using LATCH, make
sure LATCH connectors are properly stored on back of
seat. See page 32 for LATCH storage.
• REPLACE THE CHILD RESTRAINT AFTER AN
ACCIDENT OF ANY KIND. An accident can cause
damage to the child restraint that you cannot see.
• STOP USING CHILD RESTRAINT AND THROW IT
AWAY after the date molded into the bottom of the child
restraint. “DO NOT use this car seat after December
(Year)”
• DO NOT MODIFY YOUR CHILD RESTRAINT or use any
accessories or parts supplied by other manufacturers.
• NEVER USE CHILD RESTRAINT IF IT HAS DAMAGED
OR MISSING PARTS. DO NOT use a cut, frayed or
damaged child restraint harness, LATCH belt or vehicle
seat belt.
