This child seat must be in the recline position when installed rear-facing.•
Child seat must be in the upright position when installed in forward-•
facing mode with children who weigh more than 15.1 kg (33 lbs).
Adjust the belts provided with this child seat so they fit snugly around •
your child. A snug strap should not allow any slack. It lies in a
relatively straight line without sagging. It does not press on the child’s
flesh or push the child’s body into an unnatural position.
Secure the top anchorage strap provided with this child seat.•
The child seat must be secured to the vehicle by means of a •
lower connector system if it is installed in a seating position that is
equipped with a lower universal anchorage system or by means
of a vehicle seat belt if it is installed in a seating position that is not
equipped with a lower universal anchorage system, and by means
of a tether strap, as shown in the installation instructions. Use of the
tether strap is required forward-facing and is optional rear-facing.
Follow all instructions on the child seat labels and in this user guide.•
Register your child seat with the manufacturer, Britax Child Safety, •
Inc. by visiting www.BritaxUSA.com/registration, OR complete and
return the registration card that was shipped with this child seat.
HUGS•
chest pads must be used in forward-facing mode. Removal
of HUGS is optional only for rear-facing mode.
To prevent injury due to deterioration or hidden damage, discontinue •
use of a child seat that is older than six years or has been in a
moderate or severe crash. See Serial Number and Manufactured Date
Label located on child seat (page 9).
This child seat must not be used in the home, in boats, or other non-•
certified applications.
Based on crash statistics, Britax recommends that parents select the •
back seat as the safest location for a properly installed child seat.
Please study Vehicle Compatibility on page 15 to ensure your child’s
safety and consult your vehicle owner’s manual.
Secure this child seat even when it is not occupied. In a crash, an •
unsecured child seat may injure vehicle occupants.
When using in a vehicle with air bags, refer to your vehicle owner’s •
manual for child seat installation instructions and precautions.
Never use the harness adjuster strap to lift or carry this child seat. •
Doing so could cause damage to harness adjuster and webbing.
Always carry this child seat by its shell or top anchorage straps.
The primary protection for occupants of a vehicle in a collision is the •
body of the vehicle itself; a child seat will not protect a child when
a vehicle is seriously impacted. However, correctly installed, a child
seat will substantially improve chances for survival in most crashes.
Make sure all users fully understand the correct ways to use this child
seat in a vehicle.
Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual or contact the vehicle •
manufacturer for the maximum weight rating for their LUAS anchors.
Use vehicle belt (not LCS connectors) for installations with children
who weigh more than the vehicle LUAS anchor limit. Unless
specified otherwise by the vehicle manufacturer, assume a 18.1 kg
(40 lb) child is the vehicle LUAS anchor limit.
Prevent the Side Impact Cushions from being punctured. Puncture •
damage will cause the cushions not to perform as intended in a crash.
The use of non-Britax Child Safety, Inc., covers, inserts, toys, •
accessories, or tightening devices is not approved by Britax. Their
use could cause this child seat not perform as intended in a crash.
