Verify all connections are secure and that the

child seat is stable.

The child seat is secure when it cannot be moved more

•

than 2.5 cm (1 in.) front-to-back or side-to-side at the

belt path. If the child seat is not secure, repeat the

procedure or use an alternate seating location.

When properly installed in the rear-facing position, the

•

back angle of the child seat should be 30º – 45º from

vertical (not to exceed 45º) when the car is parked on

a level surface (Fig. G).

If necessary, the proper recline angle can be achieved

•

by placing a rolled towel or pool noodle in the crease

of the vehicle seat to level the child seat’s base.

Rear-facing installation can be improved by the use of the Versa-Tether. See
