Booster Mode Installation
48
WARNING:
• Unsecured objects can become flying hazards and can cause
serious injury in an accident. While not required, it is
recommended to secure the car seat using the SuperLATCH™
connectors and/or the top tether in vehicles equipped with
LATCH anchors. If LATCH anchors are not available use the vehicle
seat belt to secure the car seat when unoccupied.
• Do NOT use SuperLATCH™ if installation interferes with vehicle
seat belt.
• Do NOT use as a booster with child under 50 lbs and under 40"
tall and if child’s shoulders are below the 4th harness position.
• Do NOT use as a booster unless harness straps and buckle are
removed.
• Do NOT use as a booster with only a vehicle lap belt.
• Use as a booster ONLY with lap-shoulder seat belt.
• If lap and shoulder belt portions of seat belt and seat belt buckle
are not all correctly positioned, car seat is NOT properly installed
as a booster.
• While crash testing indicates Belt Position Booster mode meets
all FMVSS213 requirements, all vehicles do NOT simulate the
crash test bench. Therefore, we recommend to use Booster Mode
only if the seat belt retracts freely and fully on its own. If NOT,
continue to use the five point harness system which gives your
child optimum protection.

This car seat may also be configured for use as a belt positioning booster.
Booster Mode Installation
Remove harness (See page 57, steps 1-5), then remove crotch
buckle (See page 26, steps 1-4).
Place car seat in forward-facing position with entire bottom flat
on the vehicle seat and back of the car seat flat against the vehicle
seat back. A gap is acceptable as long as the top of the car seat is
firmly touching the vehicle head rest or seat back.
If available, secure car seat with SuperLATCH™ and/or top tether.
This provides a secure installation and keeps the seat secure when
not occupied.
Properly position the child in the car seat: sitting upright and all
the way back in the car seat.
Unfasten hook and loop tabs located above and below the head
rest. Adjust head rest to proper height (page 23). Do NOT refasten
the top hook and loop tabs.
