Child Seat Tether Attachment: Service Precautions

WARNING:
- WHEN USING ANY INFANT OR CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER CONCERNING ITS INSTALLATION AND USE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW EACH OF THE RESTRAINT MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN A CHILD STRIKING THE VEHICLE'S INTERIOR DURING A SUDDEN STOP OR COLLISION.
- CHILDREN HAVING A SEATING HEIGHT GREATER THAN 71 cm (26 inches), WHICH IS THE MAXIMUM HEIGHT FOR USE OF THE TOT-GUARD, SHOULD USE THE SAFETY BELTS PROVIDED WITH THE VEHICLE. HOWEVER, THE SHOULDER BELT PORTION OF THE LAP SHOULDER SAFETY BELT SHOULD NOT BE USED IF IT CONTACTS THE CHILD'S FACE, CHIN, NECK OR THROAT. IF THE SHOULDER BELT CONTACTS OR REMAINS IN FRONT OF THE CHILD'S FACE, CHIN, NECK, OR THROAT, MOVE THE CHILD TO A SEAT WITH A LAP SAFETY BELT ONLY, IF AVAILABLE. OTHERWISE, PLACE THE SHOULDER PORTION BEHIND THE CHILD'S BACK. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS PRECAUTION CAN INCREASE THE RISK OR SEVERITY OF INJURY IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION.
