Be sure you have read and understood section 5, “Infant Restraint Location” on p.21-26. Make sure vehicle is on level ground so that the level indicator, which is attached to the infant restraint, can be used to properly recline the infant restraint . If a front passenger seat is used, slide the vehicle seat rearward as far as possible from the dashboard. If a rear seat is used, make sure the seat in front of it is moved forward enough and is upright enough to allow room for the infant restraint. 1. Remove infant restraint from base, regardless of whether or not you plan on using the base. 2. Place the base or infant restraint without base in a rear-facing position in a forward-facing vehicle seat. 34 3. Thread the seat belt: Base with seat belt Infant restraint with seat belt Belt MUST go under tongue 4. Buckle the seat belt. Make sure the buckle tongue goes into the correct buckle . The seat belt should not be twisted or turned. 35 5. Tighten the vehicle seat belt. Refer to your vehicle owners manual and the instructions in “5.2.2 SAFE Vehicle Belt Systems”, p. 24-25, on tightening your vehicle belt. To create a very tight installation, push down hard with your knee or free hand in the middle of the infant restraint or base and pull and tighten the vehicle belt. 6. Push the infant restraint down into the base and make sure that you hear a “click” . Pull up on the infant restraint to be sure it is latched securely into the base. If the infant restraint does not securely latch into the base, the infant restraint provides NO protection for your child. DO NOT use the infant restraint/base if the infant restraint does not securely latch into the base. 36 6.4 Using LATCH to install Base 1. For ease of installation, extend LATCH Tongue to its maximum length. 2. Position base in vehicle seat as shown. 3. Thread LATCH through base belt path normally used for vehicle seat belt.

Tighten LATCH by pushing down hard on base and pulling the adjustment belt . 6. NEVER put two LATCH connectors on one vehicle LATCH anchor unless specifically allowed by the vehicle manufacturer . 7. Test infant restraint for secure installation as described in infant restraint “Final Safety Check” p.40. 8. Check that the LATCH stays tight and does not slip from the tightened position. If it does not stay tight, try another seating position or contact Customer Service. 37 6.5 Reclining Infant Restraint/Base For your child’s safety, it is important that your infant restraint/base be properly reclined. Attached to the side of your infant restraint is a level indicator to help properly recline the infant restraint/base on the vehicle seat. Failure to properly recline the infant restraint on the vehicle seat increases the risk of serious injury or death. If the infant restraint is too upright, a child’s head may drop forward and cause breathing problems. If the infant restraint is too reclined, a crash could put too much force on a child’s neck and shoulders. The infant restraint must be properly reclined according to the following instructions. Check the level indicator. You must look straight on at the indicator. —If the indicator shows ONLY blue, the infant restraint is properly leveled. —If any orange is showing in the level indicator adjust the recline. 38 When using the base: To lower the foot; pull down on the bottom of the foot to the desired setting to adjust the recline .
