Push 

and pull the child restraint 
from side to side, forward 
and back. The child restraint 
should not move more than 1 
in. (2.5 cm).

Align the notches in the 
front of carrier with the 
base lock bar. 
Push down firmly to lock.

when it is locked. Pull up 
on carrier to make sure it 
is locked.

Failure to securely attach carrier to base 

can result in serious injury or death.

Check Angle 
Indicator

Check the angle 
indicator while parked 
on level ground. The ball 
should be in the zone 
that matches the weight 
of your child. 

Repeat steps 4-8 if 
not reclined correctly 
and adjust base if 
needed 

(see section 

C-8).

You may need to place 
a large rolled towel or 
foam pool noodles 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.
