Setup and Installation
Proper installation is crucial for your child's safety. Always refer to the full user manual (PDF link below) for detailed instructions specific to your vehicle and child's weight/height.
Installation Modes:
- Rear-Facing Mode: For infants weighing 4-50 lbs. The child's head must be at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) below the top of the headrest handle.
- Forward-Facing Mode: For toddlers weighing 22-65 lbs and up to 49 inches tall.
Using the InRight LATCH System:
The InRight LATCH system provides a quick and secure installation. Attach the LATCH connectors to your vehicle's lower anchors until you hear an audible click. Ensure the car seat is tightly secured and does not move more than 1 inch side-to-side or front-to-back at the belt path.
