FAILURE TO FOLLOW EACH OF THE FOLLOWING
INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN YOUR CHILD STRIKING THE
VEHICLE'S INTERIOR DURING A SUDDEN STOP OR CRASH.
SECURE THE CHILD RESTRAINT WITH A VEHICLE BELT AS
SPECIFIED IN THIS INSTRUCTION BOOKLET.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recommends,
according to accident statistics, that parents select the rear seat as
the safest location for a child car seat. However, the actual
dimensions of the seat and the details of the safety belts used to
anchor the child seat differ from vehicle to vehicle. Pl e ase study
the section on Compatible Seat Belts. If i n doubt, consult your
motor vehicle handbook and your Britax dealer.
The primary protection for occupants of a motor vehicle i n a
collision is the body of the vehicle itself, and a child restraint will
not protect a child when the vehicle body sustains very serious
damage. However, correctly installed restraints will substantially
improve the chances for survival i n all accidents. Make sure that
you understand the correct way to use this restraint i n your vehicle.
