Installation in Vehicle

Check the vehicle belt or UAS belt before each use. Use
only if the belt is tightened properly and securely.
When unoccupied the rear-facing child restraint must be
fi rmly secured to the vehicle with a lower universal an-
chorage system if available or with a vehicle seat belt. The
tether strap must be stored as described in the instruction
manual.
When unoccupied, the forward-facing child restraint must
be fi rmly secured to the vehicle with a lower universal
anchorage system if available or with a vehicle seat belt
and the tether strap.
When unoccupied, the booster seat must be fi rmly secured
to the vehicle with the vehicle's seat belt only. The lower
universal anchorage system and tether strap must be
stored as described in the instruction manual.
In a crash or sudden stop, an unsecured child restraint or
booster seat could injure the driver or other occupants in
the vehicle.
Always check vehicle owner's manual for proper use of ve-
hicle seat belts and the universal anchorage system (UAS)
with your child restraint.
In very few vehicles, the child restraint and booster seat
cannot be properly installed because of the type of seat
belt system, airbag system and/or lack of location to
anchor the tether strap. Always read and follow the vehicle
owner's manual instructions for child restraint use.
