Using the seat level indicator

•  The level indicator is designed to help you install the car seat 

at the correct angle on the passenger seat.  It is located on the 

outside of the seat as pictured in Diagram 1..

•  When the seat is fitted to your vechicle, the level indicator bell 

should always fit inside it’s housing as pictured in Diagram 2.

•  Adjust the child restraint to the proper level to ensure maximum 

protection for your child. A tightly rolled towel under the front 

edge of the car seat can be used to achieve the correct level.

WARNING

 – always check the indicator before and after fitting your 

car’s seat belts.
