| Evaluation of Labels |
Labels do not illustrate how to remove and prepare LATCH attachments for use. Labels do not remind the user to tighten LATCH. |
| Evaluation of Instructions |
The LATCH attachments arrive stored, and the owner's manual does not describe how to remove them from storage prior to first use. |
| Securing the Child |
There are less than three harness adjustment heights present for use in this mode. There is a head hugger or body pillow blocking the harness slots in the shell from being easily visible. The harness must be rethreaded to adjust height for the child's growth. When adjusting the harness height, mandatory pieces to the CRS must be removed and could be misplaced. The LATCH belt must be rerouted to convert the restraint to this mode of use from another mode. The harness must be taken out and rethreaded when cleaning the restraint. |
| Installation Features |
Interference is possible between a seat component and the belt routing system. There are not three levels of built-in recline available. The restraint is equipped with hook-style LATCH attachments which may require twisting to remove from the lower anchors in the vehicle. The LATCH storage area is not clearly labeled. |
