WARNING:
• You must use restraint rear-facing if child is less than 1
year and weighs less than 22 lbs (10 kg).
• Detachable base must be used with rear-facing restraint.

Fig. 1 shows a typical rear-facing installation with UAS.
1. Confirm detachable base is securely attached to
restraint bottom (see page 13).
2. Confirm vehicle seating location has its own UAS
anchors (see vehicle owner’s manual). If it does not, you
must use vehicle seat belt for installation (see pages 16
and 18).

restraint back. Press red release button to remove each
UAS connector and webbing. Slide the narrow UAS
tethering strap out of plastic strap guides on side of the
seat.
4. Place restraint in proper
rear-facing position:
Restraint bottom and base
are both flat on the vehicle
seat with front of restraint
against the back of that
vehicle seat. (Fig. 1)
Note: It may be necessary to move vehicle front seats
slightly forward to properly fit a rear-facing restraint.
