Important Notes; Warning - R82 Wallaroo User Manual

WARNING DEATH OR
SERIOUS INJURY can occur!
The primary protection for occupants of a vehicle in a collision is the
•
body of the vehicle itself; a child restraint will not protect a child when
a vehicle is seriously impacted. However, when correctly installed, a
child restraint will substantially improve chances for survival in most
crashes. Make sure all users fully understand the correct ways to use
this child restraint in a vehicle.
When using in a vehicle with air bags, refer to the vehicle owner's
•
manual for child restraint installation instructions and precautions.
To prevent injury due to deterioration or hidden damage, discontinue
•
use of a child restraint that is older than six years or has been in a
moderate or severe crash. See date of manufacture located on the
child restraint.
The use of non-Wallaroo
•
accessories, or tightening devices is not approved by R82. Their use
could cause this child restraint to fail Federal safety standards or not
perform as intended in a crash.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Verify that the child restraint is secure and 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. Remove bulky
•
coats and or jackets before putting the child in the child restraint.
Cover the child restraint when the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight.
•
Parts of the child restraint could become hot enough to burn a child.
Store the child restraint in a safe place when it is not being used. Avoid
•
placing heavy objects on top of the child restraint.
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's
seat 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 moving,
potentially causing serious injuries.
Do not leave folding vehicle seats unlatched. In event of a sudden stop,
•
a loose seat back could cause the child restraint not to perform as
intended.
