Using The Load Leg - CYBEX ATON 2 Owner's Manual

The Load Leg is an effective safety feature of the Aton 2 and using it is
RECOMMENDED. However, if necessary (e.g. in a center position with a hump in the
floor), the Base may be installed with the Load Leg folded up underneath.
If ALL installation requirements for the Load Leg cannot be met, you MUST choose
another seating position, or install the Infant Carrier without the Base.
When possible, INSTALL the Aton 2 Base in a seating position that will allow the
Load Leg Foot to be extended into a locked position with firm contact with the
vehicle floor.
WARNING!
• NEVER EXTEND the Aton 2 Base in a seating position where the Load Leg,
even in its shortest position, causes the Base to be pushed up above the
vehicle seat. If necessary, the Base may be installed with the Load Leg
folded up underneath.
• NEVER INSTALL the Load Leg Foot beyond the FIRST hole that will lock it
firmly against the vehicle floor.
To Extend
1. Install the Base making sure Recline Angle is correct for your child.
2. Squeeze the Adjustment Handle on the Load Leg and
extend the Foot until it rests on the vehicle floor.
3. Secure the Foot into place using the first hole that will lock it firmly
against the vehicle floor without lifting the Base up off of the seat.
It may be necessary to lift up slightly on the Base to allow the Foot to lock
into the hole.
To Retract
Squeeze Handle and retract Foot.
