The Braces are two supports (left and right)
that ensure a stable and secure installation
of the Toddler Car Seat when installed in
the car Foward-Facing (without the Orbit
Base). They come in a small bag, the
Brace Bag (Photo A), inside the box with
your Toddler Car Seat.

If you have misplaced the Braces,
visit www.orbitbaby.com/support
or call 1-877-ORB-BABY
(1-877-672-2229) for replacements.

Remove the Braces from the Brace Bag
and pull the Braces apart so they are ready
to be installed.

On each side of the Toddler Car Seat,
you will see two Brace Plugs - small grey,
fi gure-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).

the Seat, Forward-Facing

3. Position each Brace on the appropriate

side of the carseat: Make sure that the
RED strip on the Brace matches the
RED Forward-Facing strip on the label
near the back of the carseat, and that
the FRONT OF VEHICLE arrow will face
the front of your vehicle (Photo D).

4. Slide both Brace Rods evenly into

the Brace Plug openings in the shell
until the Brace is fully docked and you
cannot see the Brace Rods anymore
(Photo E).

5. Turn the Locking Knob to lock the Brace

in place by fi rst pushing it in, then
turning (Photo F). Tug on the Brace to
ensure that it is locked in position.

A small amount of movement is
normal, but the Brace should not
pull off.

6. Install the remaining Brace on the other

side of the Toddler Car Seat by following
steps 1-5.
