FALL HAZARD

Britax B-Safe 35 and B-Safe 35 Elite infant car seats and travel systems
manufactured between October 1, 2014 and July 1, 2015 have been recalled as the car seat carry handle can crack and break allowing the seat to fall unexpectedly, posing a risk of injury to the infant. Immediately stop carrying the car seat by the handle until the repair is installed. All consumers who have previously registered their product with Britax will automatically receive a free repair kit. To register to receive a repair kit or verify registration, visit www.bsafe35recall.com. Consumers can continue to use the car seat when secured in a vehicle or on a stroller.



CHOKING HAZARD

Britax B-Ready strollers
have been recalled as the foam padding on the stroller’s arm bar can come off in fragments if the child bites the arm bar, posing a choking hazard. If you own this stroller, immediately remove the arm bar from recalled strollers and replacement top seats and contact Britax at 800.683.2045 for a free black, zippered arm bar cover and a warning label to apply to the strollers and replacement top seats. You can continue to use the stroller without the arm bar attached.



POTENTIAL CUT RISK
