Tether Strap Warnings
• To avoid a strangulation hazard, you MUST tightly roll
or fold excess or unused tether strap and secure with
a rubber band. Attach the tether hook to the storage
clip when not in use (p. 12). This will keep an unused
tether from hitting someone during a crash.
Additional Warnings
• In hot or sunny weather, ALWAYS check the areas of
the child restraint that may contact your child (e.g.,
buckle, buckle tongues, etc.) for hot areas before
placing him/her into the child restraint. The child
could be burned. Cover the child restraint with a light
colored blanket when you leave the vehicle.
• This child restraint must be securely fastened to the
vehicle, even when unoccupied, using the vehicle
seat belts or lower anchor connectors. An unsecured
child restraint may injure someone if a crash occurs.
•
DO NOT use the cup holders to store cans or hard cups.
Only for use with soft cups (such as styrofoam or paper).
•
DO NOT place any cups that contain hot liquids in the
cup holders.
• DO NOT attach additional padding, toys, or other
devices not made by Evenflo or described in these
instructions for the child restraint. Items not tested
with the child restraint could injure the child.
Additional pads or pillows may interfere with the
function of the harness system, or cause breathing
problems if the child’s head falls forward, increasing
the risk of serious injury or death.
• In cold weather, DO NOT dress the child in bulky
clothing like snowsuits if the child is riding in a child
restraint. Bulky coats/snowsuits make it difficult to
properly tighten the harness to the child, which
may allow the child to be ejected from the restraint
during a crash. If necessary, place a blanket over the
harnessed child without interfering with the child
restraint harness system.
WARNING
• The shoulder belt MUST be threaded properly (p. 36).
• DO NOT use this booster seat if the child’s ears are
above the back of the booster seat headrest.
•
The shoulder belt MUST NOT cross the child’s neck or fall
off the child’s shoulder. If you cannot adjust the shoulder
belt to properly lay midway between the child’s
shoulder and neck AND at or above the shoulder, try
another seating location or do not use the booster seat.
LATCH Warnings
For 5-point Harness Use Only
• The LATCH system is intended to be used ONLY as
described in these instructions. Serious injury or death
may result from misuse.
“LATCH” (Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren) is a system for attaching the child
restraint to your vehicle seat. It can be used in place of the
seat belts in vehicles. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual
for the locations of LATCH anchors. Note: Your vehicle
owner’s manual may refer to this system as ”ISOFIX” or
“Universal Anchorage System (UAS).”
• In addition to these instructions, read and follow your
vehicle owner’s manual regarding installation of the
child restraint and LATCH. If there is a discrepancy,
follow your vehicle owner’s manual.
• ONLY use for securing child restraint to vehicle lower
anchor bars.
• NEVER attach two lower anchor connectors to one
vehicle lower anchor bar.
• NEVER use the vehicle seat belts when using the lower
anchor connector assembly. Using both together can
cause slack in a sudden stop or crash.
• When not in use, the lower anchor connector
assembly should be securely stored on child restraint.
Keep out of reach of children.
• ALWAYS be sure that the lower anchor connectors
are attached to the vehicle lower anchor bars by
pulling hard on the lower anchor connectors. If
they are not attached, the lower anchor connector
assembly will not secure your child restraint. Serious
injury or death may result.
• DO NOT use this child restraint if it moves more than
25 mm (1 in) side to side or front to back at the belt
path on the child restraint. Serious injury or death
may result from poor installation. If you cannot tightly
secure the child restraint, try again or move it to
another location.
