This car seat can be installed in your vehicle using either the vehicle seat belt OR the UAS system. Both systems are equally safe to use. DO NOT USE BOTH AT THE SAME TIME. 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. UAS: The UAS system allows you to securely attach your car seat in your vehicle 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 UAS system, although some manufacturers began including UAS earlier. Some vehicle owner manuals use the term ISOFIX to identify the UAS system. 7 What is UAS? The Universal Anchorage System (UAS) consists of lower anchors and top tether anchors, which are built-in to your vehicle, and connecting hooks that are built-in to your car seat. Lower anchors are used INSTEAD of the vehicle’s seat belt to secure the child seat to the vehicle. Top tethers are used IN ADDITION to the lower anchors OR the vehicle’s seat belt to secure a forward-facing car seat to the vehicle. Review your vehicle’s owner manual for exact location and use.

READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY. Failure to follow these instructions and child restraint’s labels can result in child striking the vehicle’s interior during a sudden stop or crash. 19 ! NEVER PLACE THIS CHILD RESTRAINT REAR-FACING IN A VEHICLE SEATING LOCATION THAT HAS AN ACTIVE FRONT AIR BAG. If an air bag inflates, it can hit the child and car seat with great force and cause serious injury or death to your child. ! Experts recommend that children ride rear-facing until the age of 2 or until they reach the maximum rear-facing height or weight rating for their seat, and when forward-facing, children should use the built-in harness system for as long as possible until they reach the maximum forward-facing weight or height for their car seat. ! Review your vehicle owner’s manual for more information about air bags and car seat use. ! If your vehicle does not have a back seat, review your vehicle owner’s manual. 20 ! Choose the correct mode of use for the car seat depending on your child’s size. Infants less than 10 kg (22 lb) and less than 1 year old MUST use this car seat rear-facing. ! Select a suitable location for the car seat in your vehicle. ! Secure car seat with a vehicle seat belt or UAS that is properly routed as shown in this manual. ! Vehicle seat belt system MUST hold car seat securely. Not all vehicle seat belts can be used with a car seat. ! If vehicle seat belt does not hold car seat securely, read “Vehicle Seat Belts” section 8-D and your vehicle owner’s manual. ! Always secure car seat with UAS or a vehicle seat belt, even when unoccupied. In a crash, an unsecured car seat can injure passengers. 21 ! If car seat is in a crash, it must be replaced. DO NOT use it again! A crash can cause unseen damage and using it again could result in serious injury or death. ! DO NOT use car seat if it is damaged or missing parts. ! DO NOT use accessories or parts other than those provided by Graco except for a thin towel or mat to protect your vehicle seat or a rolled towels or pool noodles to help get your car seat level. Their use could alter the performance of the car seat. ! DO NOT remove UAS system from car seat. If using vehicle seat belt to secure car seat, UAS connectors must be stored. ! Never leave child unattended, even when sleeping. Child may become tangled in harness straps and suffocate or strangle. 22 ! Rear-facing car seat must be properly leveled: • Too reclined can result in injury or ejection. • Too upright can result in breathing difficulties. ! Never attach two UAS connectors to one vehicle lower anchor point unless specifically allowed by the vehicle manufacturer. ! Do not use both the vehicle belt and UAS belts at the same time when using the car seat rear or forward facing. ! This restraint system may only be used in these classes of vehicles: passenger cars, multi-purpose passenger vehicles and trucks that have vehicle lap/shoulder belts and tether anchors. 23 2-A Car Seat Features ABCDE F M IJG KL 24 H A Height Adjust Lever B Headrest C Head Support D Harness Cover E Buckle Pockets F Cupholder G Harness Adjustment Strap H Chest Clip I Harness Buckle J Harness Release Lever (under seat pad) K Extender Handle L Base Recline Handle M Body Support 25 AEBDCF 26 ABCDEF G A Tether Storage Ring B Tether Hook C Tether Strap D UAS Storage E UAS Strap F UAS Adjuster G Cup Holder H.
