Rear-facing
LATCH is a system for attaching the child restraint to your
vehicle seat. It is to be used in place of your vehicle’s seat
belts and can be used in vehicles with LATCH anchors. DO
NOT install this child restraint with LATCH and the
vehicle’s seat belts. Your vehicle owner’s manual may
refer to this system as ISOFIX, Universal Anchorage
System (UAS), or Lower Universal Anchorage System.
• To avoid a strangulation hazard, you MUST store the
unused lower anchor connector assembly, with all slack
removed, in storage area on the bottom of the seat
(p. 53). Roll or fold excess lower anchor connector
strap and secure with a rubber band to prevent serious
injury to vehicle occupants.
