Be certain to measure your child’s weight and height (do not guess) before choosing this car seat’s mode.
WARNING
Your child’s height, weight, and age determine how the car seat
should be placed in the vehicle.
Children vary widely in body size, shape, and temperament—
please consult your doctor before switching between any
modes within the limits and fit requirements of the car seat.
Infants and Toddlers
Children must ride rear-facing and remain rear-facing until
they reach the maximum weight or height limits for rear-facing
mode. Rear-facing child restraints installed behind another
vehicle seat must be installed touching the back of the vehicle
seat in front of it, or be as close as possible.
Toddlers and Preschoolers
Children can only use a forward-facing car seat once they outgrow
rear-facing weight or height limits. Once they are forward-facing,
children must use their child restraint in forward-facing mode with
a harness until they reach the maximum weight or height limits for
forward-facing harness mode.

press on the child’s flesh or push the child’s body
into an unnatural position.
If one side of the harness is tighter than the other,
lengthen the tighter side by pulling up the harness
near the hip slot.

FINISHED!
Your child is now secured in the
car seat.
Check your child’s fit often and
make any needed adjustments
to the car seat as they grow.
To remove your child from the car seat:
1. Loosen the harness straps. Push down on the
harness release lever (through the opening in
the seat pad) while pulling the harness straps
away from your child.
2. Unfasten the chest clip. While holding both sides
of the chest clip, press the release button with
your thumb and pull the chest clip apart.
3. Unbuckle the harness. Press the red button to
release the buckle tongues.
4. Remove your child.
Failure to fasten and tighten the harness system
correctly may allow the child to be ejected from the
child restraint in a crash or sudden stop causing serious
injury or death. Serious injury can include paralysis and/
or permanent brain injury.
DO NOT mistake comfort for safety. The harness system
must be snugly adjusted.
DO NOT put snowsuits or bulky garments
on your child when placing them in the
child restraint.
Bulky clothing can prevent the harness
straps from being tightened properly.
WARNING
Troubleshooting
• If the buckle or harness release lever sticks: DO
NOT LUBRICATE THEM. Check for dropped food, sticky
spilled drinks, dirt, leaves, etc. Clean the buckle or
harness release lever with warm water and remove any
objects with tweezers. If you cannot adjust the harness
to remain tight with the buckle securely locked, DO NOT
use this car seat.
• If the harness twists: Straighten the harness each time
you put your child in the car seat. When you remove your
child, lock the buckle and tighten the harness so it will
be ready for the next use.

Vehicle Belts
Your vehicle’s features may be considerably

If LATCH: lower anchors are not an option or if your
child weighs more than 55 lb (24.9 kg), you MUST use
the vehicle seat belt system to install the car seat.
Not all vehicle belts and seating positions will work
with car seats. Follow the steps in this section to
learn how to lock a car seat in Rear-Facing Mode
or Forward-Facing Mode with a vehicle belt.
DO NOT use both the lower anchor belt
and vehicle belt at the same time.
WARNING
You MUST review your vehicle owner’s manual
Review your vehicle owner’s manual to determine
the type of vehicle belts in your car and the
seating positions available for installing a car seat.
1 2
Check how this car seat can be locked into
place with the vehicle belt
The vehicle belt MUST NOT loosen after tightening
it. This requires locking it by using either:
• The vehicle belt’s retractor (see step 3) OR
• The vehicle belt’s latch plate (see step 4)
continued on next page
70
71
3
Check the retractor on your vehicle belts
Retractors pull vehicle belts into stored positions and lock
the belt to hold passengers in place. The following retractors
will work with this car seat:
• Switchable retractor (most vehicles have this type).
This retractor can be manually switched to a locking
mode. Your retractor MUST be in this locking mode to use
the vehicle belt with this car seat.
To switch to locking mode:
1. Slowly pull the shoulder belt all the way out and then let it go
back into the retractor 1–2 in. (2.5–5 cm).
2. As it retracts, you will likely hear a ratcheting sound.
3. Gently pull the belt to see if it has locked. You will not
be able to pull any more of the belt out once the lock
has engaged.
• Automatic locking retractor. This retractor always locks. It
will automatically lock after slowly pulling the shoulder belt out
at least halfway and letting it go back into the retractor 1–2 in.
(2.5–5 cm).
Emergency locking retractor
If the retractor does not lock, it is likely an emergency locking
retractor. This retractor only locks during a sudden stop or collision.
Continue to step 4 to determine if your vehicle belt’s latch plate
can lock the belt.
4
Check the latch plates on your vehicle belts
Latch plates are the part of the vehicle belt that goes into the buckle.
To check if the latch plate locks:
1. Buckle the vehicle belt.
2. Slowly pull up on the lap portion of the vehicle belt.
a. If the vehicle belt does not slide through the latch plate, it’s
locked. You can use the locking latch plate with this car seat.
b. If the vehicle belt slides through the latch plate, it is
a sliding latch plate. Sliding latch plates easily slip
between the lap and shoulder portions of the belt.
If you have an emergency locking retractor with
a sliding latch plate, you MUST use a locking clip.
Please contact us for a locking clip; see the
back cover.
NEVER use the following with this car seat:
• Emergency locking retractor lap-only belt
• Inflatable seat belts

LATCH: Lower Anchor Belt
Your vehicle’s features may be considerably
different than those pictured here.
The lower anchors of LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers
for CHildren) is a universal system for installing car seats
without using vehicle seat belts. The LATCH: lower anchor
belt can ONLY be used in vehicles that have the lower
anchor bars installed in designated seating positions. Most
vehicles manufactured after September 2022 are equipped
with LATCH: lower anchor bars. Check your vehicle
owner’s manual to see which seating positions may be
equipped with LATCH: lower anchor bars.
DO NOT use both the lower anchor belt
and vehicle belt at the same time.
WARNING
Squeeze the spring lever on the hook and remove it from
the storage attachment next to the Forward-Facing Belt
Path. Repeat with the hook on the other side of the car seat.
Reach into the Forward-Facing Belt Path to pull the lower
anchor belt out for use.
Hooks
Adjuster
Remove the tension from the belt by pushing down on the
side of the car seat with the adjuster. Press the adjuster’s
button to loosen the belt.
Squeeze the spring lever on the hooks, push the hooks
back into the vehicle seat, and rotate the hooks to the
side. Pull the hooks out of the vehicle seat.

The lower anchor belt MUST be properly stored in its location when:
• Using the vehicle belts to install the car seat OR
• The car seat is not installed in a vehicle.
To store the lower anchor belt, route the belt through the Forward-Facing
Belt Path. Secure the hooks to the storage attachments on both sides of
the car seat as shown. Gently tighten the belt to remove slack.
Storing the Lower Anchor Belt
Tether Strap
Your vehicle’s features may be considerably
different than those pictured here.
When anchors are available, you MUST ALWAYS attach,
adjust, and secure the tether (top anchorage) strap when
installing the car seat in Forward-Facing Mode with the
internal harness. Tethers improve the installation and stability of
car seats and reduce the risk of injury. Attach the tether hook
to the tether anchor designated by your vehicle manufacturer
for that seating position. Check your vehicle owner’s manual for
more information. If the seating position does not have a tether
anchor, use a different seating position or see your dealer or a
qualified mechanic to have one installed.
Using this child restraint without the tether strap anchored
as required by the manufacturer would be a misuse of
the child restraint and, in a sudden stop or crash, could
result in serious injury or death. Serious injury can include
paralysis and/or permanent brain injury.
DO NOT fasten multiple tether hooks on the same tether
anchor in the vehicle.
Storing the Tether Strap
The tether strap MUST be properly stored in its
storage location when:
• Installing the car seat in Rear-Facing Mode OR
• The car seat is not installed in a vehicle.
Attach the tether hook to its storage location as
shown. Use the tether strap adjuster to gently
tighten the tether strap and remove any slack.

Child Restraint Use
78
79
According to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seating positions than in the front seating positions.
Rear seating positions are statistically safer, whether you
have air bags, advanced air bags, or no air bags at all.
If you are not sure where to place the car seat in your vehicle:
• Consult your vehicle owner’s manual; OR
• Contact Dorel Juvenile Group Consumer Care Department; OR
• Visit your local Child Passenger Inspection Station. Go to https://
www.nhtsa.gov/vehicle-safety/car-seats-and-booster-seats to
find your closest station.
NEVER place a child rear-facing
in a seating position with an
active frontal air bag.
Check the vehicle owner’s manual for more
information about air bag/child restraint use.
Use the child restraint only on
vehicle seats that face forward.
DO NOT use on seats that face
the sides or rear of the vehicle.
For vehicles without a back seat, refer to your
vehicle owner’s manual.
WARNING
Vehicle Seating Position
Installation in Vehicle
To avoid your child being seriously burned, take the
following precautions:
• Park in the shade or where the sun does not directly hit
the car seat.
• Cover the car seat with a sheet or blanket when not in use.
• Check for hot seat and buckles before placing child in
car seat.
To help protect your vehicle seat’s upholstery from
damage: You may use an accessory approved by Dorel
Juvenile Group or a single layer towel underneath and
behind car seat.
Check the vehicle belt or lower anchor belt before each
use. Use only if the belt can be tightened properly and
locked securely in place.
Even when unoccupied, this child restraint MUST be firmly
secured to the vehicle with the lower anchor belt or with
the vehicle seat belt.
In a crash or sudden stop, an unsecured child restraint
could injure occupants.

Replacement and Expiration
Registration and Safety Notices
DO NOT risk your child’s safety.
To keep your child as safe as possible, Dorel Juvenile Group
strongly recommends replacing the car seat even after a minor
crash, even if it was not occupied at the time.
Replacement After a Minor Crash
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration states
that for a crash to be considered minor ALL of the following
MUST be true:
• Vehicle able to drive away from the crash site; AND
• Vehicle door nearest the car seat was not damaged; AND
• No passengers were injured; AND
• Airbags did not deploy; AND
• There is no visible damage to the car seat.
If the crash your car seat was involved in meets ALL the criteria,
you may not need to replace the car seat.
If one or more of these criteria are not true or if you are uncertain
of any of your answers, replace the car seat immediately.
Replacement After a Moderate to Severe Crash
You MUST replace this car seat if it has been in a moderate
to severe car crash.
