Check for proper recline.
For children between
5-22 lbs (2.3-10 kg),
the bottom level to ground
line MUST be level to the
ground.
For children 22-40 lbs
(10.1-18 kg) and can sit

rotate the

child restraint between the 2 level to ground lines. Start by
making the bottom level to ground line level, then rotate seat up. DO
NOT rotate past the top most upright level to ground line.
Adjust child restraint if needed.

You may need to place a
large rolled towel(s) (A) or
foam pool noodle(s) under
the front of the child restraint
to allow the level line on the
side of the plastic shell that
matches your child’s weight
to be level with the ground.
Check often to be sure
padding is still in place and
the vehicle belt is tight.
