Installing the Base Using Vehicle Belt

You must carefully follow the instructions provided by your vehicle manufacturer, in addition to the information in this manual.

If a front passenger seat is used, slide the vehicle seat rearward as far as possible from the dashboard. If a rear seat is used, make sure the seat in front of it is moved forward enough and is upright enough to allow room for the infant restraint.

1. Make sure vehicle is on level ground in order to get the correct recline position

2. Place the base in a rear-facing position on a forward-facing vehicle seat.

3. When using the base to install the infant restraint, the lock-off is ALWAYS used to secure both belts of the lap or lap/shoulder belt. Open the lock-off and route the vehicle belt through the vehicle belt path and over the lock-off . Buckle the vehicle belt.

4. Make sure the buckle tongue goes into the

correct buckle . The seat belt should

not be twisted or turned. Lap Belt

into the base, the infant restraint provides NO protection for your child. DO NOT use the infant restraint/base if the infant restraint does not securely latch into the base.
