Rear-Facing Installation with
LATCH: Install in Vehicle
The top anchorage strap
1
and hook is not used
for rear-facing. Attach
the tether hook to the
bottom of the base as
shown.Tighten to remove
slack.
With child restraint in the
2
most reclined position,
place child restraint rear-
facing in the back seat.
Check for proper recline.
For children between
5-22 lbs (2.3-10 kg), the
bottom level to ground
line MUST be level to the
ground.
For children 22-35 lbs
(10.1-16 kg) and can sit up
unassisted, rotate the child
restraint between the 2
level to ground lines. Start
by making the bottom level to
ground line level, then rotate
seat up. Do Not rotate past the top most upright level to
ground line.
Adjust child restraint if needed.
You may need to place a
large rolled towel(s) or
A
foam pool noodle(s) (A)
under the front of the child
restraint to help achieve the
correct recline. Check often
to be sure padding is still in
place and the LATCH belt is
tight.
