Rear-Facing
When properly installed in the rear-
facing position, the recline angle of the
child seat should be at least 30˚ for
children and up to 45˚ from vertical for
infants unable to maintain head and
neck control (not to exceed 45˚) when
the car is parked on a level surface�
Use the angle guide as a guide to achieve the proper recline
angle for rear-facing installations� The angle guide will be
parallel to the ground when the child seat angle is at the
center of the acceptable angle range (37�5˚)� If necessary,
the proper recline angle can be achieved by placing a rolled
towel or pool noodle in the vehicle seat bight�
Overhang
It is important that
the base of the child
seat rests completely
flat on the vehicle
seat with no side
overhang� As seen
in the illustration,
it is permissible to
allow up to 7�5 cm
(3 in�) of the base to
hang over the front
edge of the vehicle
seat� Some vehicle
seats do not allow enough of the child seat base to contact
the vehicle seat� If this is the case for a forward-facing
installation, adjust the seat to the upright position� For a rear-
facing installation, choose another seating position� Not doing
so could cause the child seat to not perform as intended�
In some cases, the vehicle head
restraint can prevent the child seat
head restraint/head pad from being
raised high enough to properly adjust
the harness for the fit of your child
when using a forward facing reclined
position� DO NOT force the child seat
head restraint/head pad past the
vehicle head restraint� Doing so could cause the child seat
not to perform as intended� If the location of the vehicle
head restraint interferes with the child seat head pad, raise
or remove the vehicle head restraint� If the vehicle head
restraint cannot be removed, move the child seat to the
upright position or try a different seating location�
