Proper installation is crucial for your child's safety. Always refer to your vehicle's owner's manual and the car seat's full instruction manual for detailed, step-by-step guidance specific to your car and child's weight/height.

3.1 Rear-Facing Installation (Infant Mode)

For infants weighing 5-40 lbs, the car seat must be installed in the rear-facing position. Ensure the car seat is reclined to one of the appropriate rear-facing recline positions (typically levels 1 or 2, as indicated on the seat) so that the child's head is properly supported and does not fall forward. The top of your child's head must be at least 1 inch below the top of the car seat's headrest.

• Use either the vehicle's LATCH system or the vehicle's seat belt for installation. Do not use both simultaneously unless explicitly permitted by the car seat manual.
• For LATCH installation, connect the LATCH connectors to your vehicle's lower anchors until you hear an audible click.
• For seat belt installation, route the vehicle's lap and shoulder belt through the designated rear-facing belt path. Lock the vehicle's seat belt according to your vehicle's manual.
• Press firmly on the car seat while tightening the LATCH strap or seat belt to remove all slack. The car seat should not move more than 1 inch side-to-side or front-to-back at the belt path.

3.3 High-Back Booster Installation

For children weighing 30-100 lbs, the car seat can be used as a high-back belt-positioning booster. In this mode, the car seat's internal harness is removed, and the vehicle's lap and shoulder belt are used to secure the child and the booster seat.

• Remove the internal harness system as instructed in the full manual.
• Position the booster seat on the vehicle seat.
• Route the vehicle's lap and shoulder belt through the designated guides on the booster seat and across your child. Ensure the shoulder belt lies flat across the center of your child's shoulder and chest, and the lap belt is low on the hips, touching the thighs.
