Figure A illustrates a
•
Short Route
lap-shoulder
belt installation.
The recline bar must be used at all times
1
with this child seat.
Insert the recline bar into
the holes on the rear of the child seat. Use a
rubber mallet to tap the recline bar ends into
the holes. See page 28 for details.
You must always use the Versa-Tether when installing this child
2
seat.
Loosen the Versa-Tether and place it up and over the child
seat back.
Place the child seat in the forward-facing position on the vehicle
3
seat. Ensure the bottom of the child seat shell is in full contact with
the vehicle seat and the recline bar is resting against the vehicle
seat back.
Pull the vehicle belt out and route through the
4
belt slot furthest from the vehicle buckle, from
the rear to the front of the child seat (Fig. B).
The vehicle belt must be routed on the
•
outside
of the recline bar.
Route the vehicle belt
5
under
the child seat
cover, between the comfort foam and the child
seat shell, and through the belt slot closest to
the vehicle buckle from front to rear of the child
seat (Fig. C).
The vehicle belt must be routed on the
•
outside
of the recline bar.
Verify that the vehicle belt is not twisted and
6
then buckle (Fig D).
Push the child seat firmly into the vehicle seat
7
while removing slack first from the lap portion
and then the shoulder portion of the vehicle
belt.
Lock the vehicle belt according to the
8
instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual.
Attach each Versa-Tether
9
®
hook to separate
vehicle designated tether anchors. Remove
all slack from the tether to secure. Store any excess tether strap
webbing within your vehicle. See pages 26 – 27.
Verify that all connections are secure, the vehicle belt is tight, and
10
the child seat is secure.
The child seat is secure when it cannot be moved more than 1 inch
•
front-to-back or side-to-side at the belt path. If the child seat is not
secure, repeat this procedure or use an alternate seating position.
