Before installing the car seat base, ensure the infant inserts and harness are adjusted for your child's size.

2. To adjust the headrest and harness height, push down on the harness release lever (located through the opening in the pad) while pulling the harness straps.
3. Squeeze the adjustment handle lever (located at the top of the headrest) up, then move the headrest up or down to the proper height for your child. The harness straps should be at or just below your child's shoulders.
4. Release the handle to lock the headrest in place.

The car seat carrier must be side-facing to be removed from the base.

Ensure the vehicle seat is flat and free of obstructions. The car seat base must be flat on the vehicle seat.
