Installing Car Seat Base with Vehicle Belt

WARNING

• Not all vehicle belts are safe for use with this car seat. Read the

vehicle belt requirements section in this manual and your vehicle

owner’s manual.

• Refer to vehicle owner’s manual to determine how to secure a child

restraint system (car seat) in your vehicle using the vehicle belt.

• Vehicle belt MUST stay tightly adjusted around Car Seat Base at

all times when installed in a vehicle.

• NEVER install this car seat with the Base if installing with an

inflatable vehicle belt.

• If your vehicle has a storage compartment under the floor, install

car seat with Load Leg in that seating position only if approved by

the vehicle manufacturer.

• ALWAYS store the Load Leg when not in use.
