Description CERTAIN CYBEX SOLUTION X-FIX MODEL BOOSTER SEATS MANUFACTURED DURING FEBRUARY 2010, WERE PRODUCED USING AN INCORRECT WARNING LABEL. THE DEFECT CONSISTS OF AN INCORRECT WARNING STATEMENT RELATED TO SECURING AN UNOCCUPIED BOOSTER SEAT. THIS STATEMENT IS INCONSISTENT WITH CYBEX RECOMMENDED PRACTICES - ALWAYS SECURE AN UNOCCUPIED BOOSTER WITH THE VEHICLE SEAT BELT. IF A CAREGIVER FOLLOWS THE WARNING AS WRITTEN, THERE IS AN INCREASED RISK THAT THE UNOCCUPIED BOOSTER SEAT COULD STRIKE A VEHICLE OCCUPANT AND CAUSE INJURY IN A SEVERE CRASH. THE INCORRECT WARNING STATEMENT APPEARS IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL AND ON THE HEADREST WARNING LABEL.
