Booster Car Seat

OWNERS MANUAL Model 79752

Thank you for choosing the Fisher-Price

Safe Embrace Booster Car Seat. Before you use the booster car seat, please take time to read and understand this manual completely. DO NOT allow others to use this booster car seat until they understand these instructions for proper use. Your childs safety depends on you! No one can predict when the use of a car seat will prevent injury or death. When used properly, this booster car seat will better restrain your child in your vehicle by allowing you to properly position the vehicle lap and shoulder belt. The use of a properly positioned lap and shoulder belt in a rear vehicle seating location will reduce the risk of injury in a sudden stop or crash.

Message to Parents

WARNING

Booster Car Seat2

Proper installation and use depends on you! If you do not follow the instructions in this manual and the labels on the booster car seat, paying particular attention to the warning statements, your child could be at risk of striking the vehicles interior during a sudden stop or crash, resulting in serious injury or death.

USE ONLY the vehicles lap and shoulder belt system when restrain- ing the child in this booster car seat. Using a lap only belt only will still allow your childs head to move forward in a sudden stop or crash, possibly causing your childs head to strike the vehicles interior or your childs knees hard enough to cause injury or death.

NEVER leave an unsecured booster car seat in your vehicle. If left unsecured, even when not occupied, the booster car seat could injure other occupants in a sudden stop or crash.

NEVER put anything on your vehicle seat (such as a cushion) to raise the booster car seat. This will create too much slack in the vehicle belt system. In a sudden stop or crash, a loose vehicle belt system will not be able to properly restrain your child. NEVER use the booster car seat after it is involved in a crash. A crash can cause damage to the booster car seat that you cannot see. NEVER allow the shoulder belt to be moved off of your childs shoulder. It is critical that your child not move the shoulder belt out of position after you have adjusted it.
