Therefore, for first-time installation, evaluate according to these directions without your child in the carrier. To install the infant carrier, first be sure it has been removed from the car seat base. Also be sure the stroller seat is in the forward facing position. Recline the backrest of the stroller about 3/4 of the way down enough so that your carrier will fit level onto the stroller seat. Place the carrier onto the stroller seat so that your child will be facing you when you walk. The mounting notch of the infant carrier fits onto the front armrest, (although you may need to remove the fabric cover), and the front of the carrier rests on the backrest.

USING THE SAFETY NETTING WHEN
SEATBACK IS FULLY RECLINED
The safety netting must be used whenever the seat is in a fully reclined position. The safety netting is stitched into a pocket underneath the footrest fabric. Pull the netting out of this pocket as far as the stitching will allow. Then zip up each side of the netting so that it connects completely with the footrest fabric. Finally, pull the netting under the front armrest, (toward baby), and then back over the top of the armrest, (away from baby) (Fig. 19). Be sure to pull the netting all the way around and down on the armrest so that it covers the metal insert clips of the armrest.

ATTACHING THE REVERSIBLE
CANOPY
To attach the canopy, insert the plastic shafts into the plastic slots located on the sides of the seat (Fig. 20). Lift up to check that each side is locked into position. Whenever the seatback is in the fully reclined position, be sure that the canopy snaps are buttoned onto the back and sides of the seat fabric. The canopy can be converted to allow more air flow through the stroller. Unzip the lower half of the canopy from the upper half. This will leave a mesh cover that can snap to the back of the seat. (Fig. 21) To remove or reverse the canopy, first undo the snaps. Then press the release tabs, located on the plastic slots, while pulling up on the canopy shafts.
