❃LATCH

This car seat may be installed in a vehicle

using either the vehicle seat belt or the

LATCH system (for vehicles equipped with

LATCH).

WARNINGS - Prevent serious injury or death:

Never put a car seat in a front vehicle

seat unless recommended by vehicle

owner’s manual. National Highway

Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)

alerts vehicle owners that according to

accident statistics children up to age 12

are safer in the back seat. For vehicles

with air bags, refer to vehicle owner’s

manual for child restraint installation

information.

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. Their

use could alter the performance of the

car seat.

This child restraint is NOT compatible

with any base, stroller or shopping cart.

Failure to follow these instructions and

car seat labels can result in child striking

the vehicle’s interior during a sudden

stop or crash. Secure child restraint with

a vehicle seat belt or LATCH as shown in

this manual.

Select a suitable location for the car seat

in your vehicle.

Use car seat rear-facing only. Serious

crippling injury or death can result if

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.

DO NOT use rear-facing child restraint in

a vehicle seating position equipped with

an air bag. Child’s head and neck may be

seriously injured when an inflating

air bag hits back of child restraint.

Car seat must be properly leveled:

• Too reclined can result in injury or

ejection.

• Too upright can result in breathing

difficulties.

Never leave infant unattended, even

when sleeping.

DO NOT remove LATCH system from car

seat. If using vehicle seat belt to secure

car seat, LATCH connectors must be

stored. (see section “LATCH storage”)

Never attach two

LATCH connectors

anchor point unless

by the vehicle

manufacturer.

Strangulation Hazard: Child can strangle

in loose harness straps. Never leave child

in carrier when straps are loose or

undone.

of countertops, tables or other elevated

surfaces.

Suffocation Hazard: Infant carrier can

roll over on soft surfaces and suffocate

or other soft surfaces.

Avoid serious injury due to falls. Always

use harness to restrain child. On models

BASIC INFORMATION (continued)

Vehicle

Lower Anchor

Points

Vehicle

Seat Crease

Typical seat in a passenger vehicle. Other

vehicle types may have different LATCH

locations or different markings.

United States Federal Motor Vehicle Safety

Standards have defined a new system for

installing car seats in vehicles. The system

is called LATCH. LATCH stands for:

Lower Anchorage and Tether for CHildren.

LATCH System for Vehicles:

Some vehicle owner manuals use the term

ISOFIX to identify the new car seat

anchorage system. This carseat with

LATCH can also be used in vehicle seating

positions equipped with ISOFIX.

Newer vehicles may have one or more seating

positions equipped with LATCH anchor points.

If vehicle is equipped with LATCH, the vehicle

lower anchor points may be visible at the vehicle

seat crease. If not visible, they may be marked

with a symbol (Fig. a) or a colored dot.

See your vehicle owner’s manual for exact

locations, anchor identification, and

requirements for use with a car seat. (Fig. a)

WHAT IS LATCH?

Thank you for contacting Graco. LATCH is defined

as anchorages 280mm (11.02 inches) on center. As a

manufacturer, we do not recommend using the LATCH

system in the center position if it exceeds this length. If you

have further questions regarding LATCH usage, please

contact NHTSA at 1-800-326-4236 or www.nhtsa.dot.gov.

This car seat is designed for rear-facing use

ONLY by an infant whose:

• Weight is less than 22 lbs (10 kg) and;

• Height is less than 29 inches (73.6 cm)

HEIGHT & WEIGHT LIMITS

A preterm or low birth weight infant may

be at special risk in a vehicle or aircraft.
