Tips for Safe Use
Tips for Safe Use
When assembling or using your Graco car seat, follow these tips to ensure a safe experience for you and your child.
1. Make sure the car seat is properly installed in the vehicle by following the instructions that came with it.
2. ALWAYS use the LATCH system when installing your car seat in a car. If your car doesn’t have LATCH, make sure the seat is secured using the vehicle’s safety belt.
3. NEVER leave a child unattended in a vehicle with a car seat installed. Always remove any child from the car seat if you’re going to be more than 5 minutes away from the car.
4. Always keep an eye on your child while they are in their car seat and take note of any changes in their behavior or alertness. If something seems off, don’t hesitate to contact someone else for help: emergency services, family members, or a friend who can watch your child while you go get help.
