Forward-Facing

IMPORTANT: In forward-facing installations, it is important that the base of

the child seat rests completely flat on the vehicle seat. As illustrated below,

it is permissible to allow up to 20% or 3 inches (7.6 cm) of the base to hang

over the edge of the vehicle seat. Some vehicle seats do not allow enough

of the child seat base to contact the vehicle seat. If this is the case, adjust

the recline angle to a more upright position. Not doing so could cause the

child seat not to perform as intended.

WARNING:

In some cases, the vehicle

head restraint can prevent the child seat head

restraint from being raised high enough to properly

adjust the harness for the fit of your child when

using a forward facing reclined position. DO NOT

force the child seat head restraint past the vehicle

head restraint. Doing so could cause the child seat

not to perform as intended. If the location of the

vehicle head restraint interferes with the child seat

head restraint, raise or remove the vehicle head restraint. If the vehicle

head restraint cannot be removed, move the child seat to the upright

position or try a different seating location.
