To keep your child as safe as possible, Dorel Juvenile Group

• Vehicle able to drive away from the crash site; AND
• Vehicle door nearest the car seat was not damaged;
AND
• No passengers were injured; AND
• Airbags did not deploy; AND
• There is no visible damage to the car seat.
If the crash your car seat was involved in meets ALL the
criteria, you may not need to replace the car seat.
If one or more of these criteria are not true or if you are
uncertain of any of your answers, replace the car seat
immediately.
