LATCH Installation
• Figure A illustrates
installation.
• Verify that your vehicle is equipped with LATCH
anchors. If LATCH anchors are not available, you
must use the vehicle belt installation methods.
1 If stored, remove the LATCH connectors from
the storage slots under the cover (page 34) and
pass them through their adjacent belt slots.
IMPORTANT:
• This child seat is shipped with the buckle in
position 1 (Fig. B). Use buckle position 1 or 2 that
is closest to but not underneath your child. Do not
use buckle position 3 in rear-facing mode. See
page 38 for Adjusting Harness Buckle Position.
• The LATCH strap must rest IN FRONT OF the child
seat buckle when using buckle slots 1 or 2 (Fig. B).
2 Press and hold the LATCH adjuster release
button, then pull the LATCH strap to full length.
3 Recline the child seat and place rear-facing on
the vehicle seat. This child seat must be in the
recline position when installed rear-facing. See
Recline Adjustment on page 34.

vehicle LATCH anchor (Fig. C) in the upright
position (Fig. D).
• An audible click confirms attachment.
• Ensure that the LATCH strap is not twisted.
TIP: You may need to turn the front of the child seat
toward you for easier access to the vehicle
LATCH anchor.
5 Attach the remaining LATCH connector to its
adjacent vehicle LATCH anchor (Fig. E) in the
