Choosing UAS or Vehicle Belts
The UAS
The Universal Anchorage System
(UAS) is for installing child restraints
without using vehicle seat belts.
The UAS can ONLY be used in
vehicles that have the UAS anchor
bars installed and designated UAS
seating positions. Most vehicles
manufactured after September
2002 are equipped with UAS. Check
your vehicle owner’s manual to see
which seating positions may be
equipped with UAS.
When installing this child restraint
with vehicle belts or when using as
a booster seat, the UAS connectors
and belt MUST be properly stored.
To store UAS on this child restraint:
Thread UAS belt through forward-
facing belt path. Then attach con-
nectors to storage attachments as shown. Gently pull free end
of belt to remove slack.
Vehicle Belts
If UAS is not an option, you must
use the vehicle seat belt system to
install the child restraint.
There are some vehicle belts that
will not work with a child restraint or
will require special attention. Check
your vehicle owner’s manual for
specific instructions.

WARNINGS:
When used correctly the UAS or vehicle belts
are equally safe. Do not use both the UAS belt and vehicle belt at
the same time.
