Routing paths for rear facing installation with or without headrest
The Convertible car seat, in a Rear Facing installation, was designed with a
removable upper seatback to allow for a proper installation when the upper seatback
comes in contact with the front seat. If the upper seatback comes in contact with the
front seat and prevents a 45 degree installation, remove the upper seatback and
install the Convertible at 45 degrees per the instructions in this section. To remove
the upper seatback refer to section 5.11 and read all WARNINGS.
Reinstall the upper seat back when child reaches 22 lbs. (9.98 kg.), or the top of the
child’s head has NOT reached max height red line on seat back. Keep child rear
facing as long as possible. If you have any questions regarding the use of the upper
seat back or any other questions please contact Baby Trend Customer Service at
1-800-328-7363.
Never use a Top Tether connector in a rear facing
installation!!
