⚠WARNING⚠
Death or Serious Injury Can Occur
The car seat, without the car seat base, can fit securely in most
vehicles using a vehicle seat belt. However, some vehicle belt
systems are not acceptable for use with a car seat system.
If the vehicle seat belt does not remain tight or the car seat can
move more than 1 in (2.5 cm) in any direction, your child could be
seriously injured in a sharp turn, sudden stop, or crash. Move the
car seat to another seating location and re-install. If in doubt, refer
to the vehicle owner’s manual for specific instructions regarding car
seat use.
When installing the car seat without the car seat base, always
use the Side Impact Braces. Failure to use the braces will result
in an unsafe installation. If you have misplaced your braces, visit
www.shoporbitbaby.com or call 1-877-ORB-BABY (1-877-672-
2229).
The Side Impact Braces are two supports
(left and right) that ensure a stable and
secure installation of the Toddler Car Seat
when installed in the car without the car
seat base. They come nested together in
your Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat.
Before starting the installation, pull the
two braces apart so they are ready to be
attached (Photo A) .
On each side of the car seat, you will see
two brace plugs - small grey, figure-8
shapes. Each plug has an opening that
will accept one of the metal rods extending
from the brace (Photo B).
1. Ensure that the locking knob on
each brace is turned to UNLOCKED.
(Photo C). Push in and turn to change
position of locking knob if needed.
2. Position each brace on the appropriate
side of the car seat for rear-facing use:
Make sure that the BLUE strip on the
brace is aligned with the BLUE rear-
