Best Practices - Chicco NextFit User Manual

BEST PRACTICES

• Ensure all vehicle occupants are properly restrained before traveling.
Unrestrained occupants can be thrown around and may be seriously injured or
seriously injure other occupants in a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash.
• Do not leave loose objects, such as books, bags, etc., in the back of the vehicle.
In the event of a sharp turn, sudden stop, or crash, loose objects can be thrown
around and possibly cause serious injury to vehicle occupants.
• Cover the Child Restraint when the vehicle is parked in sunlight. Parts of a Child
Restraint can become very hot if left in the sun. Contact with these parts can
burn a child's skin. Always check the surface of any metal or plastic parts before
putting your child in the Child Restraint.
• To avoid strangulation, Do not allow children to play with vehicle seat belts. If
possible, move unused belts out of reach.
• Do not use anything to raise the Child Restraint off the vehicle seat. In a sharp
turn, sudden stop, or crash, the Child Restraint could slide and potentially cause
serious injury.
• Never use a second-hand Child Restraint with an unknown history.
