Operating Instructions
Once installed, ensure your child is properly secured in the booster seat using the vehicle's lap and shoulder belt.
Securing Your Child
- Position your child in the booster seat.
- Route the vehicle's lap belt low across your child's hips, touching the thighs.
- Route the shoulder belt across your child's chest and collarbone, ensuring it does not rest on the neck or face.
- Buckle the vehicle's seat belt.
- Check for a snug fit. The booster seat helps position the vehicle's seat belt correctly on your child's body.
IMPORTANT: Always ensure the vehicle's seat belt is properly positioned and snug. Never use only the lap belt with this booster seat.
Maintenance and Care
Cleaning Instructions
- Fabric Cover: The fabric cover can be removed for cleaning. Refer to the care label on the fabric for specific washing instructions. Typically, machine wash cold on a delicate cycle with mild detergent. Air dry.
- Plastic Components: Wipe plastic parts with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- LATCH Connectors: Keep LATCH connectors clean and free of debris.
Storage
- Store the booster seat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Ensure the LATCH connectors are retracted if storing in a vehicle without LATCH anchors.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues and Solutions
- Booster Seat Feels Loose:
- Ensure the LATCH connectors are fully engaged with the vehicle's anchors. Push the booster seat firmly into the vehicle seat to remove slack.
- If not using LATCH, ensure the vehicle's seat belt is routed correctly and tightened securely around the child and booster.
- Cup Holder Not Secure:
- Verify the cup holder is fully slid into its designated slot until it clicks or feels firm.
- Avoid placing excessively heavy or unstable items in the cup holder.
- Vehicle Seat Belt Does Not Fit Child Correctly:
- Ensure the child meets the minimum height and weight requirements for the booster seat.
- Adjust the vehicle's headrest or seat position if possible to optimize belt fit. The shoulder belt should lie flat across the collarbone, not on the neck.
