Consult your vehicle owner’s manual to help identify your

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 posi-
tions. 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 rear-facing belt
path. Then attach connectors 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.
