1-A A Quick Guide to Your Manual

This car seat is for children: Rear-Facing: 5-40 lb (2.2-18 kg)

Forward Facing: 22-65 lb (10-30 kg)

• Children less than 22 lb (10 kg) MUST use this car seat rear-facing. Review section 1-C for more

information.

Note: Preterm or low birth weight infants may be at special risk in a vehicle or aircraft. According to the

AAP, these infants may suffer breathing issues if improperly reclined in a car seat. When rear-facing, use

the corrected age for preemies. Graco advises that you have your physician or hospital staff evaluate your

infant and recommend the proper car seat or car bed before you and your infant leave the hospital.

Get to Know Your Car Seat

What Seating Location Should I Use?

Review section 2-A to see all of the features of this infant car seat.

The best seating location for this infant car seat is one that:

• Is recommended by your vehicle owner’s manual, and

• Results in a secure installation of this car seat.

Some vehicles have specific requirements for where the car seat can be installed, so be sure to check your

vehicle owner’s manual for available seating positions, if any.

Review section 8-B, 8-C and 8-D of this manual AND your vehicle owner’s manual.

This car seat is for children: Rear-Facing: 5-40 lb (2.2-18 kg)

Forward Facing: 22-65 lb (10-30 kg)

• Children less than 22 lb (10 kg) MUST use this car seat rear-facing. Review section 1-C for more

information.

Note: Preterm or low birth weight infants may be at special risk in a vehicle or aircraft. According to the

AAP, these infants may suffer breathing issues if improperly reclined in a car seat. When rear-facing, use

the corrected age for preemies. Graco advises that you have your physician or hospital staff evaluate your

infant and recommend the proper car seat or car bed before you and your infant leave the hospital.

Which Installation Method Should I Use?

This car seat can be installed in your vehicle using either the vehicle seat belt OR the lower anchor attachment.

Both are equally safe to use. INSTALL USING ONLY ONE METHOD.

Vehicle Seat Belt: Review section 8 and your vehicle owner’s manual to learn how to install your car seat

with the vehicle seat belts.

LATCH or Lower Anchor Attachment: The LATCH system or lower anchor attachment allows you to securely

attach your safety seat in your car without using the vehicle seat belt and possibly to get a better fit. All 2003

and newer model year vehicles are required to have a LATCH system, although some manufacturers began

including LATCH earlier. Some vehicle owner manuals use the term ISOFIX to identify the LATCH system.

According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained

in the rear seating positions than in the front seating positions. The center

of the back seat can be the safest during a possible side impact.

NEVER place this child restraint rear-facing in a vehicle seating location

that has an active front air bag.

In the event there is no back seat, review your vehicle owner’s manual to see how to

use your child restraint.

LATCH consists of lower anchors and a tether anchor, which are built in to your vehicle,

and a lower anchor attachment and a tether that are built into your car seat. The lower

anchor attachment is used INSTEAD of the vehicle’s seat belt to secure the child seat to the

vehicle. The tether is used IN ADDITION to the lower anchor attachment OR the vehicle’s

seat belt to secure a forward-facing car seat to the vehicle.

Review your vehicle owner’s manual for exact location and use.
