IMPORTANT
• Verify that the child restraint is secure and that the harness is
properly adjusted around the child each time the child restraint
is used .
• Adjust the harness to fit the clothes the child is wearing . The fit
for a child in winter clothes will differ from a child in summer
clothes .
• Cover the restraint when the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight .
Parts of the child restraint could become hot enough to burn the
child .
• Store the child restraint in a safe place when it is not being used .
Avoid placing heavy objects on top of it .
• Do not leave children alone in a vehicle, even for a short time .
• Do not, except as described in this booklet, attempt to disassemble
any part of the child restraint or change the way its harness or the
vehicle restraint belts are used .
• Do not leave loose objects, e .g . books, bags, etc ., in the back of
a vehicle . In the event of a sudden stop, loose objects will keep
