Do not install a booster seat or a
booster cushion with only the lap
strap of the seat belt.
Do not install a booster seat or a
booster cushion with a seat belt that
is slack or twisted.
Do not put the seat belt under your

make sure that the child seat rests
tightly against the vehicle seat. It may
be necessary to lift or remove the head
restraint. See Head Restraints (page 110). Booster seat (Group 2)
We recommend that you use a booster
seat that combines a cushion with a
backrest instead of a booster cushion only.
The raised seating position will allow you
to position the shoulder strap of the adult
seat belt over the centre of your child
’s
shoulder and the lap strap tightly across
its hips.
