Lower Anchor Belt Installation

continued on next page

WARNINGS: 

Do not use the lower anchors of the child 

restraint anchorage system (LATCH system) to attach this 
child restraint when restraining a child weighing more 
than 40 lbs (18 kg).

The vehicle belt must be used for installation if your child 
weighs more than 40 lb (18 kg).

Do not use the lower anchor belt along with the vehicle lap 
or lap/shoulder belt. 

Check lower anchor belt before each use. Use only if the 
belt can be tightened properly and securely. 

Do not fasten multiple lower anchor hooks on the same 
lower anchor bar in the vehicle.

Store the tether hook when used rear 
facing. Attach the tether hook to stor-
age attachment as shown and gently 
tighten to remove slack.

Failure to follow these warnings can 
result in serious injury or death.

WARNINGS: 

Never install a rear facing child 

restraint in the front seat of a vehicle equipped 
with an active frontal airbag. 

This child restraint

 MUST

 always face the rear of the        

vehicle when the child is less than 1 year old.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children 
remain rear facing until they are at least 2 years old. 

Please talk to your doctor about the best option for your child.
