Thank you for choosing this car seat, referred to
throughout this manual as a child restraint. The DJG
family is committed to creating a child restraint with the
most comfort and convenience available today.
Remember, parents are a child’s first teachers and
examples. If you always buckle your seat belt, your
child will think it is the natural thing to do. Make it a
firm rule that the vehicle does not go until everyone is
buckled up. Make no exceptions.
No one can predict if use of a child restraint will
prevent injury or death in a particular crash. However,
combined with careful driving, proper use of a child
restraint can lower a child’s risk of injury or death in
most crashes.
Your child’s safety is worth the time it will take to
read and follow these instructions. After reading, if
you still have questions or have any problems with this
child restraint, please contact our Consumer Relations

rear of the vehicle and be in the fully
reclined position when the child weighs
between 5-35 lbs. (2.3-16 kg) and is less

forward facing.
Check vehicle instructions for more
information about air bag/child restraint

Failure to follow these warnings can result
in the serious injury or death of your child.
To help you recognize those instructions
which are most critical for your child’s
safety, we use this symbol :

top of the child restraint’s headrest.
Dorel Juvenile Group does not recommend
the use of any child restraint accessories
except those provided by DJG.
Never allow any child to play with this

Registration and Recall Information
This child restraint is certified for aircraft use only when
used with the internal harness. Do not use as a belt-
positioning seat because aircraft seats do not have shoulder
belts. Use on forward-facing aircraft seats only and in a
position where the lap belt can be tightened securely. This
child restraint is installed in an aircraft seat the same way it
is installed in a vehicle.
Use the child restraint only with F.A.A. certified equipment.
Contact the airline prior to taking a child restraint on
board in order to comply with their specific regulations.
Aircraft Installation
General and Warm Weather Use
To help protect your vehicle seat’s upholstery from
damage, use a towel underneath and behind child restraint.
To avoid your child being seriously burned, take the
following precautions:
1. Park in the shade or where sun does not directly hit the
child restraint.
2. Cover the child restraint with a sheet or blanket when
not in use.
3. Check for hot seat and buckles before placing child in
child restraint.

Choosing LATCH or Vehicle Belts
The LATCH System
Anchor bars
Vehicle Belts
If LATCH is not an option,
you will use your vehicle’s
belts. There are some
vehicle belts that will not
work with a child restraint
or will require special
attention. See next page
for specific instructions.
LATCH means Lower
Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren. Not all vehicles
manufactured before
September 2002 were
equipped with LATCH.
The LATCH system
allows a child restraint to
be secured in the vehicle
without using the vehicle
belt system and can ONLY
be used in vehicles that
have the anchor bars
installed.
Check your vehicle owner’s
manual to see which seating
positions may be equipped
with the LATCH system.
Not all vehicle belts will work with this child restraint.
You must determine if your vehicles belts are
compatible with this child restraint. If you will use the
LATCH system, refer to the LATCH section.
ELR - Emergency Locking Retractor Belts
Definition: These belts only lock in a sudden stop or
crash. To see if you have this type of belt, pull on the
lap belt, let it return part way, then pull on it again. If
it moves freely, it is an ELR belt and the child restraint
could work loose during normal driving. Refer to your
vehicle owner’s manual.
Some ELR belts will convert to Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) belts if you pull the belt all the way out.
Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual.
ELR shoulder belts either require a locking clip or cannot
be used with any child restraint. Note: You may use an
ELR lap and shoulder belt when using this seat as belt-
positioning booster; no locking clip is required.
ELR lap-only belts must be replaced with a manual belt;
contact your vehicle dealer. A locking clip will not
correct this problem.
Automatic/Passive vehicle seat belts
An automatic (passive) 2-point belt has no lap belt. You
must install a lap belt to secure a car seat. You may also
need to install an extra lap belt for an automatic 3-point
belt. Refer to the vehicle owner’s manual. A locking clip
will not correct this problem.
Vehicle belt too short
Contact your vehicle dealer for a seat belt extender.
Belts in center of the door or side panel (A) or
middle of the vehicle
seat cushion (B).
You must move the child
restraint to another seating
location. A locking clip will
not fix this problem. See
“Locking Clip” section.

WARNING
!
Failure to check and adjust the manual belt

Manual Belts
Manual lap belts are
common in the center
rear seat and can allow
the child restraint to
loosen when it is tilted or
jarred. After tightening
the lap belt securely,
tilt and push the child
restraint forward and to
both sides. If no loosening
occurs, your child restraint
should be secure.
If loosening does occur,
try the following: If the
buckle plate slides on the
belt, turn the buckle plate
over. If the buckle slides,
turn the buckle. Refasten
the vehicle lap belt. The
release button should face
out after twisting so that
it is easy to reach in an
emergency.
If the lap belt continues
to loosen, the child
restraint must be moved
to another location in the
vehicle. A locking clip will
not correct this problem;
see your vehicle owner’s
manual.
Locking Clip
You will rarely need to use a locking clip except in some older
vehicles. Built in child restraint locking systems have been
required in vehicles since 1996, and many vehicles had these
features even earlier.
Check your vehicle owner’s manual to learn how to use the
systems in your vehicle. If you need a locking clip, return to the
store where you purchased this child restraint to purchase a
locking clip or call us at 1-800-544-1108 to order one.
Locking clips from any child restraint manufacturer are okay to
use.
Remove the locking clip when the vehicle seat belt is not being
used with the child restraint. A locking clip will not fix all types of
seat belt problems.
You do not need a locking clip when using this seat as a belt-
positioning booster.
The following directions describe installing the child restraint
rear-facing. Same steps apply for forward facing, except install
the restraint forward facing and thread the vehicle belt in the
forward-facing belt path.
continued on next page.
Place child restraint in
vehicle seat rear-facing.
NOTE: Attach the tether
hook to the bottom of the
base. Tighten to remove
slack. See “Adjusting the Top
Anchorage Strap” section.
For children between
5-22 lbs (2.3-10 kg), the
bottom level to ground
line MUST be level to the
ground.
For children 22-35 lbs
(10.1-16 kg) and can sit up
unassisted, rotate the child restraint between the 2 level to
ground lines. Start by making the bottom level to ground line
level, then rotate seat up. Do Not rotate past the top most
upright level to ground line.
Adjust child restraint if needed.

A loose top anchorage (tether) strap can
result in serious injury or death.
A loose LATCH system can result in
serious injury or death.
After deciding whether to use your Vehicle Belts or
LATCH, be sure to read the warnings below as they
pertain to both systems.
Rear-Facing Installation
When LATCH is not
available, fasten belt hooks
together behind the child
restraint as shown.
NOTE: Do not use
the top anchorage strap
(tether) in the rear-
facing position. The top
anchorage strap and hook
should be attached to the
bottom of the base as
shown.
WARNING
!
Rear-Facing Installation with
Vehicle Belt:
continued on next page.
With child restraint
in the most reclined
position, place child
restraint rear-facing in
the back seat.
Check for proper
recline.
For children
between 5-22 lbs
(2.3-10 kg), the
bottom level to ground
line MUST be level to
the ground.
For children 22-35 lbs
(10.1-16 kg) and can sit
up unassisted, rotate the
child restraint between
the 2 level to ground
lines. Start by making the bottom level to ground line
level, then rotate seat up. Do Not rotate past the top
most upright level to ground line.
Adjust child restraint if
needed.
You may need to place
a large rolled towel(s)
or foam pool noodle(s)
(A) under the front
of the child restraint
to help achieve the
correct recline. Check
often to be sure
padding is still in place
and the vehicle belt is
tight.
