Rear-Facing

When installed in the rear-facing position, the child seat should be reclined at least 30˚ from vertical for children and up to 45˚ from vertical for infants unable to maintain head and neck control (not

to exceed 45˚) when the car is parked on a level surface. When installing the seat in rear-facing mode, recline the seat to position 3 and use the guide line on the child seat to help achieve an acceptable recline angle for rear-facing installations.
