Setup and Installation
The Evenflo Symphony Elite car seat offers flexible installation options using either your vehicle's LATCH system or the vehicle's seat belt. Always refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for specific car seat installation instructions and locations.
LATCH Installation:
The Quick Connector technology allows for a fast and snug installation. Locate the lower anchor connectors on the car seat and attach them to your vehicle's lower anchors. Press down firmly on the car seat while pulling the LATCH strap to tighten until the car seat moves no more than one inch side-to-side or front-to-back at the belt path.
Recline Adjustment:
The car seat features multiple recline positions to ensure proper angle for your child's age and comfort, especially for rear-facing infants. Adjust the recline by pulling the recline handle located at the front of the car seat base.
Operating the Car Seat
Harness Adjustment:
The Infinite Slide Harness allows for easy adjustment of the shoulder straps without rethreading. Simply squeeze the red tabs on the harness straps and slide them up or down to the desired height, ensuring they are at or below the child's shoulders for rear-facing, and at or above for forward-facing.
Headrest Adjustment:
The headrest can be adjusted with one hand to grow with your child, providing optimal head and neck support. Simply lift the lever at the top of the headrest and slide it up or down.
Infant Insert:
For smaller infants, the car seat includes a removable infant insert to provide additional comfort and support. Remove the insert when your child outgrows it, typically around 11 pounds.
