Check Rear-Facing Level Lines
For children who weigh between
5-22 lb (2.3-10 kg), the bottom
level line must be parallel with the
ground.
For children who weigh between
22-40 lb (10.1-18 kg) and can sit
up unassisted, rotate the car seat
between the 2 level lines.
Start by making the bottom level line
parallel with the ground, then roate
the car seat up.
Do not rotate past the top level line.

Hooks to Vehicle’s Lower
Anchors in Seat Bight

anchor bar.
Then repeat for the second hook on
the other side of the car seat.

Tighten Belt

Check Belt Tightness
Hold the car seat at the Rear-Facing
Belt Path with your weaker hand.
Push and pull the car seat from side
to side. It should not move more than
1 in. (2.5 cm).
It may be easier to tighten the belt
by reaching into the Rear-Facing
Belt Path and pulling the free end
of the belt towards you and parallel
with the belt path as shown.
