VEHICLE SEATING POSITIONS Sunshine Kids Juvenile Products® and the U.S. Department of Transportation warn that children under 12 must ride in the rear seats and away from front airbags. The only exception is if the airbag is turned off. When using a vehicle with airbags, refer to the vehicle owner’s manual for additional booster seat installa- tion instructions and precautions.
LATCH Installation To improve safety and performance, this booster seat is equipped with a unique, one-pull, LATCH system that allows secure attachment to a vehicle’s lower LATCH anchor locations. WARNING: Unsecured objects can become flying hazards and can cause serious injury in an accident. Sunshine Kids Juvenile Products®...
DISENGAGING LATCH INSTALLATION Follow above instructions in reverse: 1) Depress the cam lock lever while pulling child seat away from the vehicle seat back until the LATCH straps are extended all the way. 2) Disconnect LATCH connectors from vehicle anchors. 3) Pull LATCH adjuster straps to recess the LATCH connectors into the back of the booster seat bottom for safe storage.
Securing the Child While this booster seat is designed to offer advanced side- impact protection with its backrest section attached, the seat bottom can also be used alone as a backless booster. 1) Remove seat bottom from backrest section (see page XX). 2) Disengage the two middle elastic straps and unfold padded fabric flap on back of seat bottom.
WARNING: If the diagonal seat belt portion does not correctly fit the child, then the seat must only be used with the seatback portion attached and properly adjusted to fit the child.
