- WARNING: Never travel in the sideward facing position.

- Any rigid items and plastic parts of the child car seat must be located and installed so that they cannot become trapped by a movable seat or the vehicle door.

- If any load bearing points other than those described in the instructions are used, this can significantly reduce the protection factor of the child car seat.

- ALWAYS secure your child with the safety harness when using this child car seat.

- Never leave your child unattended.

- Do not attempt to dismantle, modify or add to any part of the child car seat or change the way your vehicle seat belts are made or used.

- After an accident the child car seat should be replaced and the vehicle seat belts. Although they may look undamaged, they may not protect your child as well as they should.

- Do not place anything such as a towel or cushion under the child car seat. This could affect the performance of the child restraint system in an accident.

- Any vehicle seat belt holding the child car seat to the vehicle should be tight, and that belt should not be twisted.

- Support-leg should be in firm contact with the vehicle floor.

- Always make sure that the child car seat harness and vehicle seat belt are correctly tensioned to ensure maximum protection for your child.

- Safely secure any luggage or other objects that might cause injuries to the occupant of the child car seat in the event of a collision.

- Failure to comply with the instructions would be dangerous, and will automatically void the warranty and exempt Cosatto from any liability.

- The harness buckle has been designed to be released quickly in an emergency. IT IS NOT CHILD PROOF. More inquisitive children may learn to undo the buckle. Children should be told never to play with the harness buckle or any other part of the child car seat.

- It is important that the lap harness is worn low down, so that the pelvis of the child is firmly engaged.

- In booster seat mode, the lap vehicle seat belt must be worn in such a way as to properly secure the pelvis of the child.

- Never use the child car seat without its fabric cover because the fabric cover constitutes as an integral part of the child car seat performance. The fabric cover should not be replaced with any other than the ones recommended by Cosatto.

- Cover the child car seat if it is left in direct sun light for prolonged period as the child car seat base surfaces may get very hot. Check the child car seat surface before placing your child in the seat.
