This child
restraint
system conforms to all applicable
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
Each child restraint is designed for use only by children
who weigh between 22 and 40 pounds
(10
and 18 kg)
and whose height is between 33.5 and
40
inches
(850
and
1 026
km)
and who are capable of sitting
upright alone.
The child should also be at least one year old, It
is
important to use
a
rear-facing infant restraint until the
child
is
about
a
year old.
A
rear-facing restraint gives
the
infant's head, neck and body the support they would
need in a crash. See
"Child Restraints"
later
in
this
section for more information.
e:
What if the top of my child's shoulders is abolve
the shoulder belt slots for the five-point child
restraint harness system?
A:
A child whose shoulders are above the shoulder
belt slots for the five-point child restraint harness
system shouldn't use this child restraint. Instead,
the child should sit on the vehicle's regular seat
cushion and use the vehicle's adult safety belts.
BEFORE YOU USE THIS CHILD RESTRAINT
BE SURE THE TOP OF THE CHILD'S
SHOULDERS IS BELOW THE SLOTS THAT
THE HARNESS GOES THROUGH. A CHILD
WHOSE
SHOULBERS
ARE ABOVE THOSE
SLOTS COULD BE INJURED DURING A
SUDDEN STOP OR CRASH. IF THE TOP OF
THE
CHILD'S SHOULDERS IS ABOVE
THE
SLOTS, DON'T USE THIS CHILD
RESTRAINT WHILE THE VEHICLE IS
IN MOTION.
