Transport Canada Regulations
Transport Canada Road Safety Directorate regulates children’s
restraint systems under the Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems
Safety Regulations (RSSR).
The regulations require the manufacturer and/or importer to certify
the restraint to the applicable safety standards and place specified
warnings and information on the labels fastened to each restraint
and in this instruction manual.
Vehicle Seating Position
Never place a child rear-facing in a seating
position with an active frontal air bag.
Check the vehicle owner’s manual for more
information about air bag/child restraint use.
Use the child restraint only on vehicle seats
that face forward.
Do not use on seats that face the sides or
rear of the vehicle.
For vehicles without a back seat, refer to
your vehicle owner’s manual.
Children are safer when properly restrained
in rear seating positions than in the front
seating positions.
According to accident statistics, children in rear seating
positions are statistically safer, whether you have air bags,
advanced air bags, or no air bags at all.
If you are not sure where to place the child restraint in your ve-
hicle: consult your vehicle owner’s manual; contact Dorel Juvenile
Group Consumer Care Department; or for USA residents visit your
local Child Passenger Inspection Station: Go to http://www.safer-
car.gov/cpsApp/cps/index.htm to find your closest station.
To avoid your child being seriously burned, take the
following precautions:
1. Park in the shade or where sun does not directly hit the child
restraint.
2. Cover the child restraint with a sheet or blanket when not in use.
3. Check for hot seat and buckles before placing child in child
restraint.
To help protect your vehicle seat’s upholstery from damage, use a
single layer towel underneath and behind child restraint.
