and 90 lbs (11.3 and 40.8 kg) and whose height is between 30
and 58 in. (76.2 and 147.3 cm) and are at least 2 years of age.
• Booster mode: use only with children who weigh between 40
and 120 lbs (18.1 and 54.4 kg) and whose height is between 45
and 62 in. (114.3 and 157.5 cm).
• Snugly adjust the belts provided with this child restraint around
your child.
• Secure the top anchorage strap provided with this child seat.
• Use only the vehicle's lap and shoulder belt system when
restraining the child in this booster seat.
• Secure this child restraint with the vehicle's child restraint
anchorage system if available or with a vehicle belt.
• Follow all instructions on this child restraint and in the written
instructions.
• Register your child restraint with the manufacturer.
• The top tether MUST be used in harness mode for children that
weigh more than 65 lbs (29.5 kg). BRITAX recommends that
the top tether be used at all times when installing the child seat.
Using the top tether will improve the stability of your child seat
and reduce the risk of injury.
• Use this child seat forward-facing only.
• This child seat cannot be in the reclined position when used in
booster mode.
• In a vehicle with rear designated seating positions, vehicle
owners should be alerted that, according to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating
positions than in the front seating positions. To ensure your
child's safety, please study Vehicle Seating Positions on page 39
and consult your vehicle owner's manual.
• To prevent injury due to deterioration or hidden damage,
discontinue use of this child seat when it is older than nine years
or has been in a moderate or severe crash. See Serial Number
and Manufactured Date Label located on the child seat shell.
See page 3.
• Always make sure the child restraint system is secured to the
vehicle, even when unoccupied, since in a crash an unsecured
child restraint system may injure occupants.
• The use of non-BRITAX covers, inserts, toys, accessories,
or tightening devices is not approved by BRITAX. Their use
could cause this child seat to fail Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards or not perform as intended in a crash.
