The lock-off is properly closed when a positive click •
is heard.
To prevent breakage, never extend the lock-off arm •
beyond its normal open position and always keep
the lock-off closed when not in use.
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic locking •
retractor (ALR), use of the lock-offs is not required
as long as the ALR is locked. Check your vehicle
owner’s manual to determine what type of retractor
your vehicle has and how to lock the retractor.
Verify that the vehicle belt is tight and that the 8
child seat is secure.
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.•
See pages 25 – 27.
Lap-Shoulder Belt Installation
Figure A illustrates a typical rear-facing, lap-shoulder •
belt installation.
When not in use, always store LCS connectors in storage •
slots. See page 28.
Fully recline the child seat and place it rear-1
facing on the vehicle seat.
Lift the child seat cover and open the rear-2
facing lock-off farthest from where the vehicle
belt will be buckled (Fig. B).
Pull the vehicle belt out then pass it through 3
the rear-facing belt slot (Fig. C).
Vehicle belt can be routed over or under the cover.•
Route the vehicle belt across the child seat then 4
through the opposite rear-facing belt slot.
IMPORTANT: The vehicle belt must rest behind
the child seat buckle strap.
Verify that the vehicle belt is not twisted, 5
position the lap belt portion through the open
lock-off, then buckle (Fig. D).
Push the child seat firmly into the vehicle seat 6
while removing slack first from lap portion of
the vehicle belt, then from the shoulder portion
(Fig. E).
Position the shoulder portion of the vehicle belt 7
through the open lock-off, tighten belt, close the lock-off arm (Fig.
F), and replace the cover.
