WARNING! FORWARD-FACING use of this child seat
is ONLY for children who meet ALL of the requirements below.
If the child cannot be secured within these requirements
because they are too large, another type of child seat (such
as a booster) may be required. If the child cannot be secured
within these requirements because the child is too small,
review the rear-facing information on page 6.
Forward-Facing: 20 – 70 lbs (9.1 – 31.8 kg) and at least 1 year of age
Use forward-facing only with children:
• who are at least one year of age and
• who weigh between 20 and 70 lbs (9.1 – 31.8 kg) and
• who are 49 in. (124.5 cm) or less in height and
• when the top of the ears are below the top of the child seat
shell or
• when the harness straps are at or above the child’s shoulders,
parallel to level ground (Fig. B).
IMPORTANT: When using position 2, it may be necessary to adjust
the harness to a higher position than when the seat is in position 1.
