Verify that the LCS strap is not twisted and 7
attach the remaining LCS connector to the
adjacent LUAS anchor (Fig. E).
NOTE : It may be necessary to switch the LCS
connectors as shown on page 28 if ANY of the
following conditions exist :
LCS connector is not in an upright position (Fig. C).•
LCS strap is twisted.•
A positive click is NOT heard when the LCS connector •
connects to the LUAS anchor.
NOTE : If a positive click is not heard, but the LCS
connector is in an upright position, you should not
switch the LCS connectors. The strap may be too
tight or twisted, or there may be debris in the LCS
connector.
Push the child seat firmly into the vehicle 8
seat while pulling the LCS adjuster strap tight
(Fig. F).
Verify all connections are secure and that the 9
child seat is stable.
The child seat is secure when it cannot be moved •
more than 2.5 cm (1 inch) front-to-back or side-to-
side at the belt path. If the child seat is not secure,
repeat the procedure or use an alternate seating location.
When properly installed in the rear-facing position, the back angle of the child •
seat should be 30º – 45º from vertical (not to exceed 45º) when the car is parked
on a level surface (Fig. G).
If necessary, the proper recline angle can be achieved by placing a rolled towel •
or pool noodle in the crease of the vehicle seat to level the child seat’s base.
Rear-facing installation can be improved by the use of the Versa-Tether.•

pages 25 – 27.
