3. Properly securing both your child and the booster

seat in the vehicle using a seat belt designed to

restrain both the booster seat and your child. Many

seat belts are NOT safe to use with this booster seat.

Please review the secons “Safe/Unsafe vehicle seat

belt systems” carefully. If in doubt about installing

this booster seat, consult the vehicle owner’s manual

or call the Harmony Customer Service Department.

Follow all labels on this booster seat and in these

written instructions. DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THIS

BOOSTER SEAT UNTIL YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND

THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL AND IN YOUR

VEHICLE OWNER’S MANUAL.

NO BOOSTER SEAT CAN GUARANTEE PROTECTION

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SERIOUSLY IMPACTED. However,

when correctly installed, a booster seat will substanally

improve the chances for survival and reduce the risk of

serious injury in most crashes.

Carefully follow the instrucons in this manual and in

your vehicle owner’s manual. If there is a discrepancy

between the two, the vehicle owner’s manual must take

precedence with regards to seat belts and/or airbags.

! USE THIS BOOSTER SEAT FORWARD-FACING ONLY.

! DO NOT USE THIS BOOSTER SEAT without properly

assembling it.

! DO NOT allow children to play with this booster seat.

! NEVER leave children alone in a vehicle under any

circumstance.

! It is recommended that children are not le in their

child restraint system unaended.

! Set a good example by ALWAYS wearing your seat

belt. Make it a rm rule that the vehicle does not move

unl everyone is buckled up. MAKE NO EXCEPTIONS.

FAILURE TO PROPERLY READ, FOLLOW AND USE

THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND THE BOOSTER SEAT

LABELS INCREASES THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR

DEATH IN A SHARP TURN, SUDDEN STOP OR CRASH.

Your child’s safety depends on the proper installaon

and use of this booster seat. Even if this booster seat

seems easy to install and use, it is VERY IMPORTANT

to read and understand these instrucons and the

vehicle owner’s manual.

WARNING!

! Harmony Juvenile Products advises against loaning

or passing along a booster seat. DO NOT USE A

SECOND-HAND BOOSTER SEAT or a booster seat

whose history you do not know.

! To prevent injury due to deterioraon, hidden damage, etc.,

disconnue use of this booster seat if it is older than SIX

. There is an expiry date for use of this booster

seat indicated on the underside of the booster seat base.

STOP USING THE BOOSTER SEAT AND THROW IT AWAY

aer the date indicated. Please dispose of the unit in a way

others cannot reuse it (e.g. use a dark trash bag, do not sell

to a thri shop or in a garage sale, etc.).

! Store the booster seat in a safe place when not in use.

DO NOT place heavy objects on top of the booster seat

while in storage.

! DO NOT remove any sckers or warnings as they

contain important informaon.

USAGE WARNINGS

! ALWAYS ASSIST YOUR CHILD WHEN

GETTING INTO AND OUT OF THE

BOOSTER SEAT.

! NEVER LET YOUR CHILD LEAN ON

THE ARMREST WHEN GETTING INTO

OR EXITING THE BOOSTER SEAT TO

PREVENT THE SEAT FROM TIPPING.

! ENSURE THAT THE BOOSTER SEAT IS LEVEL, STABLE AND

DOES NOT ROCK SIDE-TO-SIDE. IF THE BOOSTER SEAT

IS NOT STABLE, TRY ANOTHER SEATING LOCATION. IN

VEHICLES WITH WIDE, FLAT SEATS, A ROLLED TOWEL

CAN BE USED ON THE OUTBOARD (DOOR) SIDE TO

ADD STABILITY TO THE BOOSTER SEAT.

! DO NOT ADD ANYTHING BEHIND OR UNDER THE

BOOSTER SEAT.

WARNING!

Harmony Juvenile Products recommends keeping your

child in a forward-facing car seat with a harness unl

they reach the top height or mass limit allowed by your

car seat’s manufacturer. Once your child outgrows the

forward-facing car seat with a harness, it’s me to travel

in a booster seat, but sll in the back seat.

Transport Canada recommends that children under the

age of 13 years be placed in the back seat of the vehicle

and away from acve front airbags.

According to accident stascs, CHILDREN ARE SAFER

WHEN PROPERLY RESTRAINED IN THE REAR SEATING

POSITIONS THAN IN THE FRONT SEATING POSITION.

THE SAFEST POSITION BEING THE CENTER IN THE

EVENT OF A POSSIBLE SIDE IMPACT COLLISION.

Please study the secon “Vehicle seang posions”.

Many local police and re departments frequently hold

safety inspecon events to ensure that booster seats

are properly installed. Please contact your local emergency

services department to see if and when they oer this service.

! DO NOT use any load bearing contact points other

than those described in the instrucons and marked in

the child restraint.

! DO NOT allow others to install or use this booster seat

unless they read and understand all the instrucons

and labels.

! DO NOT GIVE THIS BOOSTER SEAT to someone else

without also giving them this instrucon manual.

Addional instrucon manuals can be downloaded

directly from www.harmonyjuvenile.com.

! To ensure proper booster seat use, keep and store this

instrucon manual and refer to it when necessary.

! DO NOT LEAVE A BOOSTER SEAT UNSECURED IN YOUR

VEHICLE. In a collision, sharp turn or sudden stop, an

unsecured booster seat can injure other occupants.

Remove it or make sure that it is securely aached

to the vehicle using UAS (if available) or the vehicle’s

3-point lap-and-shoulder belt, even when not in use.

! INJURIES MAY OCCUR EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT IN A

CRASH if the booster seat is not properly installed or if

your child is not properly secured in the booster seat.

! The rigid items and plasc parts of a child restraint

shall be so located and installed that they are not

liable, during everyday use of the vehicle, to become

trapped by a movable seat or in a door of the vehicle.

! DO NOT leave folding vehicle seats unlatched. In

the event of a sharp turn, sudden stop or crash, a

loose seat back could prevent the booster seat from

protecng the child as well as it should.

! The vehicle front seat headrest that the child faces

while in the booster seat should be in its lowest

posion. ENSURE that the back of the vehicle seat

facing the child is completely padded with no hard or

potenally harmful objects.

! It is recommended that any luggage or other loose

objects liable to cause injuries in the event of a collision

shall be properly secured. In the event of a sharp turn,

sudden stop or crash, loose objects will keep moving,

potenally causing serious injuries.

! The child restraint shall not be used without the cover.

It MUST always be used with the fabric cover provided

by the manufacturer.

! The seat cover should not be replaced with any other

than the one recommended by the manufacturer.

! PARTS OF THE BOOSTER SEAT COULD BECOME

HOT ENOUGH TO BURN THE CHILD IF LEFT IN THE

SUN. Contact with these parts can injure your child.

ALWAYS touch the surface of any metal or plasc parts

before pung your child in the booster seat. Cover

the booster seat with a towel or blanket when the

vehicle is parked in direct sunlight. KEEP AWAY FROM

SUNLIGHT, OTHERWISE IT MAY BE TOO HOT FOR

THE CHILD’S SKIN.

INJURY WARNINGS

! Use ONLY the vehicle’s 3-point lap-and-shoulder belt

system when restraining a child in this booster seat.

DO NOT use this booster seat with 2-point vehicle

belts (lap-belt only or shoulder-belt only). Your child

would be seriously injured in the event of a crash.

! DO NOT use this booster seat with unsafe vehicle

seat belts listed in secon “Unsafe vehicle seat belt

systems” of this manual.

! DO NOT use this booster seat if it can’t be properly

installed. It is possible that your vehicle has no suitable

seang posion for this booster seat due to seat belt

type, airbag system and/or lack of locaon of a tether

strap anchor. Read and follow these instrucons, and

your vehicle owner’s manual carefully.

This booster seat conforms to the Canadian Motor

Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) 213.2 and IS CERTIFIED

IMPROPER PLACEMENT OF THE BOOSTER SEAT

INCREASES THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

Some seang posions in your vehicle may NOT be

safe for this booster seat. Some vehicles have NO

seang posions which are compable with this

booster seat due to seang surface, seat belt type

and/or airbag system. Read and follow these

instrucons, and your vehicle owner’s manual carefully.

Children aged 13 and under MUST ride in the rear seats,

away from front airbags. The only excepon is if the airbags

are turned o. When using a booster seat in a vehicle

with acve airbags, refer to the vehicle owner’s manual

for addional installaon instrucons and precauons.

For rear seat installaon, adjust the front seat forward

enough to ensure the child’s feet do

not hit the backrest of the front seat.

FAILURE TO PROPERLY SECURE YOUR CHILD AND

THE BOOSTER SEAT IN YOUR VEHICLE INCREASES

THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IN THE

EVENT OF A SHARP TURN, SUDDEN STOP OR CRASH.
