• 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.

Important Notes

• Britax strongly recommends that children should remain
in a child seat with a 5-point harness until reaching the
maximum weight or height allowed.

discontinue use of this child restraint if it is older than ten
(10) years. See the Serial Number and Manufactured Date
Label on the child restraint.
• Before each use, check this child restraint and its
components to make sure they are in good condition and
good working order.
• Discontinue use of this child restraint if it has been in a
moderate or severe crash. It is not necessary to replace
a child restraint after a minor crash, defined by the US
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
as:
a. The vehicle is drivable from the crash site; and
b. The vehicle door nearest to the child restraint was
not damaged; and
c. No vehicle occupants were injured; and
d. There is no visible damage to the child restraint; and
e. The airbags (if present) did not deploy.
• ALWAYS make sure the child restraint system is secured

unsecured child restraint system may injure occupants.
• Verify that the child restraint and child restraint belts or
straps do not interfere with the opening and closing of the
vehicle door.

installation does not interfere with function of vehicle
seats.

or tightening devices is not approved by Britax. Their use
could cause this child restraint not to perform as intended
in a crash.
