To Attach Child
Restraint to Base
Align the notches in the front
of the carrier with the base
lock bar. Push down firmly
on the carrying handle and
the front of the child restraint
to lock child restraint to
base. You will hear a “click”
when it is locked.
Pull up on both left and
right corners at the foot
end to make sure the child
restraint is locked to the
base.
The carrying handle can be in any locked position when
installed in the vehicle.
Check for Proper Recline
Make sure level line on side
of child restraint is level with
the ground. Adjust base if
needed. (See section C-2).
You may need to place a large
rolled towel(s) or foam pool
noodle(s) under the front of the
base to achieve correct recline
angle. Check often to be sure
padding is still in place and
the belt is tight.
DO NOT add
a towel or pool noodle
while the recline foot is being used.
