Warning!

G

Children too big for a toddler restraint must

ride in seats using regular seat belts.

Position the shoulder belt across chest and

shoulder, not face or neck. A booster seat

may be necessary to achieve proper seat

belt positioning for children over 41 lb until

they reach a height where a lap/shoulder

belt fits properly without a booster.

When the child restraint is not in use,

remove it from the vehicle or secure it with

the seat belt to prevent the child restraint

from becoming a projectile in the event of

an accident.

Do not leave children unattended in the

vehicle, even if the children are secured in a

child restraint system. A child’s unsuper-

vised access to a vehicle could result in an

accident and/or serious personal injury.
