Any implied warranties, including implied warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, shall be limited
to the duration and terms of the express written warranty. Some states
do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the
exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the
above limitations may not apply. This warranty gives you specific legal

FAQ
Q. How long can my child seat be used or when does it "expire"?A. Please refer to the user guide that came with your child seat to
determine its recommended useful life. Britax recommends that the use
of a child seat be discontinued after a certain number of years from
date of manufacture, depending on the seat, or if the seat has been
involved in a severe crash. Expiration dates are recommended for
various reasons: technology has changed, components degrade from the
environment (depending on how and where stored), parts get lost or
installed incorrectly, or instructions and labels may not be available
or not legible. After a child seat has met its expiration date, Britax
recommends that the child seat be destroyed.
Q. Is my child seat aircraft approved?A. A child seat has been tested and certified to meet FAA requirements
if it is labeled, “This restraint is certified for use in motor
vehicles and aircraft.” Even though your child seat may be certified
for use on aircraft, it is still a good idea to contact the airline
prior to travel to ask. Some aircraft have seating configurations which
are incompatible with certain child seats.
Some
Britax child seats are not certified for use on aircraft. Please refer
to your product user guide to determine if your Britax car seat is
certified for aircraft use.
Q. Which strollers are compatible with the Chaperone infant carrier?A. The Chaperone infant carrier is compatible with the Britax Chaperone
stroller. When used with the Britax adapter strap, the Chaperone is
also compatible with most major brand strollers, including the Chicco
Cortina, Peg Perego Pliko 3, Baby Trend Snap N’ Go, Maclaren Techno
XLR, and Baby Jogger City Mini.
Q. How long can my child seat be used or when does it "expire"?A. Please refer to the user guide that came with your child seat to
determine its recommended useful life. Britax recommends that the use
of a child seat be discontinued after a certain number of years from
date of manufacture, depending on the seat, or if the seat has been
involved in a severe crash. Expiration dates are recommended for

or not legible. After a child seat has met its expiration date, Britax

Q.
I have been told not to position padding between the child and the
child seat. Is it okay to use the infant positioning system?A. Yes. Britax certifies both with and without the infant positioning
system. The system was designed and tested with products. Britax,
however, recommends against using third-party accessories purchased
separately.
Q. Will a Britax car seat fit in my car?A. We encourage you to try installing the seat directly into your car
at the retail site, because not all car seats are compatible with all
vehicles.
If you are considering a convertible(infant/child) car seat, try it in both the rear-facing and forward-facing positions.
Also,
be sure to check the vehicle owner's manual for the type of retractor
on the seat belt and verify that the type of retractor is compatible
with your chosen child seat.
Finally, we also encourage you to
have your installation checked by a certified child passenger safety
technician. To have your car seat installation checked visit
www.safekids.org to find an inspection station near you.
