• The child restraint must be secured to the vehicle with a lower
connector system, if the restraint system is installed in a seating
position that is equipped with a Lower Universal Anchorage
System (LUAS), or a vehicle seat belt if the restraint system is
installed in a seating position that is not equipped with a LUAS

• To prevent injury due to deterioration or hidden damage,
discontinue use of this child seat if it is older than seven years or
has been in a moderate or severe crash (see page 4). See Serial
Number and Manufactured Date Label on child seat (page 15).
• This child seat can only be used in the following classes of vehicles:
multi-purpose passenger vehicles, passenger cars or trucks.
• Based on crash statistics, Britax recommends that parents select
the back seat as the safest location for a properly installed child
seat. Please study Vehicle Seating Positions on page 13 to ensure
your child's safety and consult your vehicle owner's manual.
• When using in a vehicle with air bags, refer to your vehicle owner's
manual for child seat installation instructions and precautions.
• Never use the harness adjuster strap to lift or carry this child seat.
Doing so could cause damage to harness adjuster and webbing.
Always carry this child seat by its shell or tether straps.
• The primary protection for occupants of a vehicle in a collision is
the body of the vehicle itself; a child seat will not protect a child
when a vehicle is seriously impacted. However, correctly installed,
a child seat will substantially improve chances for survival in most
crashes. Make sure all users fully understand the correct ways to
use this child seat in a vehicle.
• Refer to your vehicle owner's manual or contact the vehicle
manufacturer for the maximum weight rating for their LUAS.
Use vehicle seat belt (not LUAS) for installations with children
who weigh more than the vehicle LUAS limit. Unless specified
otherwise by the vehicle manufacturer, assume a 18.1 kg (40 lb)
child is the vehicle LUAS limit.
• Prevent the Side Impact Cushions from being punctured. Puncture
damage will cause the cushions not to perform as intended in a crash.
• The use of non-Britax Child Safety, Inc., covers, inserts, toys,
accessories, or tightening devices is not approved by Britax. Their
use could cause this child seat not to perform as intended in a
crash.
