Review your vehicle owner’s manual for vehicle seat belt use with booster seats.

UNSAFE VEHICLE SEAT BELT SYSTEMS
This booster seat can be installed properly using MOST vehicle 3-point lap- and-shoulder seat belts. However, some vehicle seat belts are not safe to use as their anchoring points for the lap belt may not allow for a secure installation. NEVER use any unsafe vehicle seat belt systems.

PREPARING BOOSTER SEAT FOR USE

SECURING CHILD AND BOOSTER SEAT IN VEHICLE

WARNING!
FAILURE TO PROPERLY SECURE YOUR CHILD IN THE BOOSTER SEAT INCREASES THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IN THE EVENT OF A SHARP TURN, SUDDEN STOP OR CRASH. In a crash, the booster seat does not protect your child unless the vehicle 3-point lap-and-shoulder belt is properly secured. Follow these instructions carefully to properly secure your child. ! DO NOT use this booster seat if it can’t be properly leveled, stabilized, and installed as per this instruction manual. Your vehicle may have no suitable seating position for this booster seat due to seating to the seating surface, seat belt type, and/or airbag system. Read and follow these instructions, and your vehicle owner’s manual carefully.

• WARNING: You MUST use the vehicle 3-point lap-and-shoulder belt when restraining the child in the booster seat ❶. UAS CANNOT be used.
• WARNING: Vehicle belts MUST be tight, adjusted to the child’s body, and should not be twisted ❶.
• NEVER use a vehicle lap-only belt to secure the child in the booster seat ❷.
• NEVER USE A LOOSE SHOULDER BELT.
• NEVER position the shoulder belt under the child’s arm ❸ or place the shoulder belt behind the child’s back ❹.
• The lap portion of the lap-and-shoulder belt MUST be low and snug across the hips, with the pelvis firmly engaged, just touching the child’s thighs. The lap portion MUST NOT be lying across the child’s stomach as this can cause major injuries to the child in case of a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash.

INSTALLATION

WARNING!
DUE TO VARYING ANGLES OF VEHICLE SEAT BELT RETRACTORS, EXCESS SLACK IN THE VEHICLE BELT SYSTEM MIGHT NOT BE REMOVED AUTOMATICALLY. Once the lap and shoulder portions of the seat belt are properly positioned and the buckle is attached, FEED ANY REMAINING SLACK OF THE SEAT BELT MANUALLY BACK INTO THE RETRACTOR TO TIGHTEN THE WHOLE SYSTEM.

1. Place the booster seat flush against a forward-facing vehicle seat. The vehicle seat MUST be equipped with a 3-point lap-and-shoulder belt. The booster must be level, stable, and not rock side-to-side (see “Vehicle seating positions”).
2. Place the child on the booster seat with the child’s back flat against the vehicle seat.
3. Thread both sides of the lap belt under BOTH armrests. Thread the lower end of the shoulder belt under the armrest on the buckle side ❶. ENSURE that the belt is snug across the child’s hips. It is important to ensure that any lap strap is worn low down, so that the pelvis is firmly engaged, just touching the thighs, and is NOT across the stomach.
4. Buckle the vehicle seat belt into place and ensure it is secure by gently pulling on it.

• BOTH SIDES OF THE LAP BELT MUST PASS UNDER BOTH ARMRESTS, AND THE LOWER END OF THE SHOULDER BELT MUST PASS UNDER THE ARMREST ON THE BUCKLE SIDE.
• Any straps holding the restraint to the vehicle should be tight, any straps restraining the child should be adjusted to the child’s body, and all straps should not be twisted.
• NEVER USE A VEHICLE LAP-ONLY BELT WHEN USING THIS BOOSTER SEAT.
• WARNING: To avoid possible entanglement hazards, see “Entanglement with vehicle seat belt”.
• THE VEHICLE’S SHOULDER BELT MUST LIE ACROSS THE CHILD’S SHOULDER AND LAY ACROSS THE CHEST – NOT THE FACE OR NECK. If the belt does not lie properly across the child’s shoulder and chest, the RED shoulder belt safety guide (“Parts list – B”) MUST be used to ensure proper placement (see “Using shoulder belt safety guide”).

USING SHOULDER BELT SAFETY GUIDE

1. Slide the vehicle’s shoulder belt into the red clip ensuring it is flat. Position the belt safety guide just above the child’s shoulder ❶. Adjust the belt safety guide by lengthening or shortening strap for a proper fit.

• THE VEHICLE’S SHOULDER BELT MUST LIE ACROSS THE CHILD’S SHOULDER.
• All straps MUST be tight and NOT twisted. All slack MUST be removed from lap-and-shoulder portions of the vehicle belt to ensure a snug fit. THE LAP BELT PORTION MUST PASS UNDER BOTH ARMRESTS AND BE POSITIONED LOW ON THE HIPS.

ENTANGLEMENT WITH VEHICLE SEAT BELT

• WARNING: To avoid possible entanglement and choking with your vehicle’s shoulder belts, Harmony Juvenile Products recommends that the following precautions are taken when installing your booster seat:
• Pull the shoulder portion of the vehicle seat belt all the way out until the retractor locks.
• SLOWLY let the seat belt retract until it is snug against your child.
• ENSURE that the seat belts do not press on the child’s flesh or push the child’s body into an unnatural position.
• Do the same for all unused vehicle seat belts. ! Teach your child that seat belts are not toys and should NEVER be played with, regardless of whether the car is in motion or not.
• ALWAYS be aware of what your children are doing in the back seat.
