Installation : Rear-facing

To prevent breakage, never extend the lock-off arm beyond its normal open position and always keep lock-off closed when not in use.

If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic locking

retractor (ALR), use of the lock-offs is not required as

 

long as the ALR is locked. Check your vehicle owner’s

 

manual to determine the type of retractor your vehicle

e

has and how to lock the retractor.

WARNING! This child seat must be in the recline position when installed rear-facing. See Recline Adjustment on page 29.

2 Lift the child seat cover and open rear-facing lock-off farthest from where the vehicle belt b will be buckled (Fig. B).

3 Pull the vehicle belt out and pass it through the rear-facing belt slot (Fig. C).

• The vehicle belt can be routed over or under the child seat cover.

4 Route the vehicle belt across the child seat then through the opposite rear-facing belt slot.

IMPORTANT: The vehicle belt must rest behind c the child seat buckle strap.

5Verify that the vehicle belt is not twisted, position belt through the open lock-off, then buckle (Fig. D).

6Push the child seat firmly into the vehicle seat while removing slack from the vehicle belt.

7Tighten the belt, close the lock-off arm (Fig. d F), and replace the cover.

The lock-off is properly closed when a positive click is heard.

 

WARNING! Do not use this seat with

 

30–45º

 

a non-locking, two-point Emergency Locking

 

 

 

 

 

Retractor (ELR) vehicle belt.

Verify that the vehicle belt is tight, locked,

 

 

 

 

 

and that the child seat is secure.

90º

The child seat is secure when it cannot be

 

 

 

 

moved more than 2.5 cm (1 inch) front-

 

 

 

 

 

to-back or side-to-side at the belt path. If the child seat is not

 

secure, repeat the procedure or use an alternate seating location.

 

 

When properly installed in the rear-facing position, the back angle of the

 

child seat should be 30º – 45º from vertical (not to exceed 45º) when the

 

car is parked on a level surface (Fig. F).

 

 

 

 

If necessary, the proper recline angle can be achieved by placing a rolled

 

towel or pool noodle in the crease of the vehicle seat to level the child

 

seat’s base.

 

 

 

 

WARNING! Do not raise the child seat off the front edge of the vehicle seat. This could cause your child seat not to perform as intended.

Rear-facing installation can be improved by the use of the Versa-Tether. See pages 25 – 27.
