⚠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 forward-facing, always use the
Side Impact Braces. Failure to use the braces will result in the car
seat not being securely held in place. 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
G2 when installed in the car without the car
seat base. They come nested together in
your Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat G2.
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 forward-facing
use: Make sure that the RED strip
on the brace is aligned with the RED
