Locate Locking Clip
Location
Grasp the vehicle lap/
shoulder belts together tightly
as close to the vehicle latch
plate as possible. While
holding the belts tightly,
unbuckle.
NOTE:
If the latch plate ends up just at the belt path
opening so you cannot grasp the vehicle belt at the latch
plate, grasp the vehicle belts on the opposite side of the
child restraint, as close to the latch plate as possible.
Install the locking clip on the latch plate end, as close as
possible.
Do not use both the UAS belt and vehicle belt
at the same time.
Secure UAS belts to the UAS
attachments.
Secure the tether hook to the
tether attachment when used
rear-facing.
When used in the rear-facing position, recline
the child restraint and rotate the child restraint
to the correct recline angle that matches
the weight of your child. Do not use any other
recline positions rear facing. Do not rotate the
child restraint beyond the bottom or top level
to ground lines.
When used in the forward-facing position,
do not use any recline position except to install
the child restraint flush against the vehicle seat
back. Vehicle seat back must be upright.

Using the Locking Clip
A locking clip is used to prevent the vehicle belt from
loosening before a sudden stop or crash. The locking clip
can only be used on a lap and shoulder belt combination.
The locking clip is located on the back of the child restraint.
A locking clip will not fix all types of vehicle seat belt
problems.
Do not use the locking clip when using this
seat as a booster seat.
Review section D-4 and your vehicle’s owner manual
for vehicle seat belt use with child restraints to see if a
locking clip is needed.
For Rear-Facing installation,
follow Section F-4 Steps 1-4
before starting locking clip installation.
For Forward-Facing installation,
follow Section G-5 Steps
1-3 before starting locking clip installation.
Rebuckle Vehicle Belt
