else uses the seat. Do not attach anything
to the head restraint stalks or remove the
head restraint. Do not use the seat if the
head restraint has been removed. If the
head restraint was removed, reinstall and
properly adjust the head restraint before an
occupant uses the seating position. Failure
to follow these instructions can reduce the
effectiveness of the head restraints. This
may increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision.

it before you place the child in it. Push
it from side to side while holding the
child restraint near the seat belt path.
The child restraint should not move
more than 1 inch (25 mm), from side to
