Installation - LATCH Or Vehicle Seat Belt
This car seat can be secured to a vehicle using the new
LATCH System or a vehicle seat belt. Use either the
LATCH system or a vehicle seat belt to secure this car
seat but do not use both at the same time.
Check that Harness System is routed properly for
your child’s size before installing car seat.
1. LATCH Anchorage System:
LATCH
stands for
L
ower
A
nchors and
T
ethers for
CH
ildren.
Starting with model year 2003, vehicles sold in the
U.S. are equipped with LATCH Systems. See “LATCH
System” section for more information. Check vehicle
owners manual to
determine if your vehicle
has the LATCH System
that may be identified with
the symbol as shown in
(
Fig. 1 or Fig. 2
).
Some vehicle owners
manuals may identify the LATCH System as “ISOFIX.”
An ISOFIX System can be used in the same way as
the LATCH System.
If your vehicle has the
LATCH System, the
LATCH System should be
used whenever possible.
When not in use, store
lower anchor belt and
connectors by securing
connectors on LATCH
Storage Bars on bottom of
seat
(Fig. 3).
2. Vehicle Seat Belt and Top Tether Strap:
If your vehicle does not have the LATCH System,
the car seat MUST be secured to the vehicle using a
vehicle seat belt and top tether strap as required.
Check vehicle owners manual for seating locations
recommended for car seat use and location of top
tether anchor.
1. Top Tether Information:
If a top tether anchor is not available in your vehicle,
the car seat
MUST
be secured with only the vehicle
seat belt until a top tether anchor can be installed. Use
only if a secure installation can be achieved.
For vehicles without tether anchors, contact vehicle
dealer for hardware for your specific vehicle. If tether
hardware is not available through vehicle dealer,
contact KidsEmbrace
TM
for assistance.
For those passenger vehicles or buses where top
tether anchors are not
available, the car seat
may be used without the
top tether, provided a
secure installation can be
achieved.
When tether is not in use,
store tether by snapping
tether hook into slots on
top of seat back
(Fig. 2).
