•Fit the end of a blunt object, such as a screwdriver, into the end of the metal tube on the back of the car seat. Pry the

metal tube from the groove in the shell.

•Remove the metal tube from the shoulder straps. Set the metal tube aside.

IMPORTANT! Before you complete this step – please take notice of the location you have selected for the shoulder straps. If the shoulder straps are inserted into the lower shoulder strap slots – the tether strap will be inserted through the lower center slot. If the shoulder straps are inserted into the upper shoulder strap slots – the tether strap will be inserted through the upper, center slot.

•Insert the loop end of the tether strap through either the upper, center slot or the lower, center slot.

Pad

Shell

•While holding the tether strap in place, carefully fit the top of the pad back onto the top of the shell.

•Turn the car seat around so that the back is facing you. Fit the metal tube through the loops in the shoulder straps and tether strap.

Metal Tube

• While pushing the plastic grommets from the front of

the car seat (one at a time) tap the metal tube (near

each plastic grommet) into the groove in the shell.

Make sure the metal tube “snaps” into place. The metal

tube should be completely inserted into the groove so

that it is below the surrounding outer surface.

Note: If the metal tube does not “snap” into place or

if the plastic grommets are not secured to the shell, you

probably have not inserted the plastic grommets with

the hooked end up. Please re-read step 6.
