Secure the Orbit Base with the vehicle’s LATCH system, if
available, or with a vehicle seat belt as shown in this manual. Not
all vehicle seat belts can be used with a child restraint. Always check
the security of your Base installation by pulling side to side. If the
Base moves more than 1 inch, remove the Base and re-install it until
safely secured.
Use the Infant Car Seat only with children who weigh 22
pounds (10 kgs) or less and whose height is 29 inches (74 cm) or
less. Discontinue use of the Infant Car Seat when your infant’s weight
or height exceeds either of these limits.
Check the level of the Base and Infant Car Seat after installing.
The Infant Car Seat must be properly angled: Too reclined can result
in injury or ejection. Too upright can cause breathing diffi culties.
Avoid loosening the installed Base unintentionally. DO NOT let
an adult or child turn the StrongArm Knob if the vehicle is in motion.
NEVER LEAVE YOUR CHILD UNATTENDED IN THE INFANT
CAR SEAT.
SNUGLY ADJUST THE RESTRAINT HARNESS AROUND
YOUR CHILD. The child MUST be secured properly by the Restraint
Harness at all times, whenever the Infant Car Seat is used in a vehicle
or outside of a vehicle.
