1. Warnings to Parents
and Other Users
DO NOT install or use this booster seat until
you read and understand the instructions in this
manual and in your vehicle owner’s manual.
DO NOT let others install or use the booster
seat unless they understand how to use it.
Failure to properly use this booster seat increases
the risk of serious injury or death in a sharp turn,
sudden stop or crash. Your child’s safety depends
on you installing and using this booster seat
correctly.
Your child’s safety depends on:
1. Selecting a suitable location for the booster
seat in your vehicle.
2. Placing child in booster seat.
3. Properly securing the booster seat and child
in the vehicle using a seat belt designed to
restrain the booster seat and your child. This
booster seat MUST be used with a lap/shoulder
belt. Not all lap/shoulder belts can be used.
NEVER use a vehicle lap-only belt.
4. Adjusting shoulder belt positioner so vehicle
belt fits child properly.

Your child should use this booster seat only if:
child weighs from 30 to 80 lbs. (14 to 36 kg),
and is between 35 and 54 inches (89 and 138 cm)
in height, and
child’s ears are below
top of booster seat.
If tops of ears are above
top of seat, child is too
large for booster seat.
2. Important
Safety Information
No booster seat can guarantee protection from
injury. However, proper use of this booster seat
reduces the risk of serious injury or death to your
child.
2.1 About Your Child
Use of the booster seat in a manner that is NOT
appropriate for your child’s size may increase the
risk of serious injury or death.

NEVER LEAVE YOUR CHILD
UNATTENDED.
2.2 About Using this Booster Seat
in Your Vehicle
YOUR CHILD CAN BE INJURED in a
vehicle even if you are not in a crash. Common
events such as sudden braking and sharp turns
can injure your child if the booster seat and
your child are not properly secured.
THERE ARE MANY KINDS OF VEHICLES,
seat belt systems and occupant protection
systems. As a result, you must carefully
follow the instructions provided by your
vehicle manufacturer, in addition to the
information in this manual.
SOME VEHICLES DO NOT HAVE ANY
suitable location for this booster seat, and many
vehicles have seat belt systems that must not be
used with the booster seat because those systems
will not securely hold your child in place. Refer
to section 4, “Selecting a Suitable Location for
the Booster Seat” (pages 11-15) and to your
vehicle owner’s manual for information.
CONTINUOUS USE OF A BOOSTER SEAT
may cause damage to a vehicle seat. To protect
vehicle upholstery, use a car seat mat, towel
or thin blanket under the booster seat.
