1. Remove any toy or other objects attached to carry handle before
installing car seat in vehicle.
2. Locate a LATCH seating position as identied in your vehicle
owner’s manual. Some LATCH seating positions may require
deploying of anchors, or installation of guides.
3. Remove the Safety Seat from the base
by squeezing the base release handle
located under the center of the head end
of the Safety Seat and lifting upward on
the Safety Seat (Fig. 24-1).

LATCH connectors from
their storage position inside the base
(Fig. 47-1). Place the Base in the rear-
facing position in a forward facing vehicle
seat as shown in Fig. 47-2.
The Child must
face the rear of the vehicle and Safety
Seat must be placed in a vehicle seat that
faces forward.
5. Locate the
LATCH anchors in
the vehicle seat (Fig. 47-2). Once
located, snap the Safety Seat
LATCH connectors onto the steel
rod. Listen for the click and check
that both connectors are rmly
attached to the anchor rods by
pulling outward on the connectors
(Fig. 48-1).

requires that the

or hand on the Base while pulling
upward on each webbing end. The
webbing will automatically lock in
place.
