Owner's Manual

Options For Securing A Car Seat:

This car seat can be secured to a vehicle using the LATCH System

or a vehicle seat belt.

1. LATCH System:

LATCH stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers

for CHildren.

Model year 2003 and newer vehicles are

equipped with LATCH Anchorage Systems.

Check vehicle owner’s manual to determine

if your vehicle has the LATCH Anchorage

System. Look for LATCH system symbol (fig. a)

or the LATCH Lower Anchor symbol (fig. b).

Some vehicle owner’s manuals may identify the

LATCH System as “ISOFIX”. An ISOFIX System

can be used in the same way as the LATCH System.

If your vehicle has the LATCH System, the LATCH

System including top tether should be used whenever

possible.

2. Vehicle Seat Belt and Top Tether Strap:

If your vehicle does not have the LATCH System, the

car seat MUST be secured to the vehicle using a vehicle

seat belt and top tether strap as required.

Check vehicle owner’s manual for seating locations recommended

for car seat use and location of top tether anchorages.

NOTE: Tether strap should always be used when a tether anchor is available.

Tether strap use is recommended for rear-facing when possible.
