According to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), car
seats and boosters provide protection for infants and children in a crash, yet car
crashes are a leading cause of death for children.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, read this owner's manual and your
vehicle owner's manual before installing and using this Car Seat. Using a Car Seat
makes a big difference. By properly using this Car Seat and following these instructions,
the instructions on the Car Seat, and the instructions that accompany your vehicle, you
will greatly reduce the risk of serious injury or death to your child from a crash. Do not
be misled by the commonly used term "safety seat"; no restraint system can prevent all
injuries in all crashes. Many properly restrained adults and children are injured in motor
vehicle crashes, including relatively minor crashes. A properly used Car Seat is the best
way to minimize injuries to your child and to increase the chances for your child's survival
in most crashes.
