• You have an infant or toddler, and you own a rear-facing infant car seat.

  • Because your car was built after 2002, you can install the infant car seat base using the LATCH system.

  • If possible, install the car seat in the center of the back seat – the safest point in case of crashes.

  • You’ll attach the seat base with the 2 belted hooks to anchor bars located below the seatback, making sure the reclining level meets the manufacturer’s specifications.

  • Pull on the tightening strap and check that the hooks are securely attached to the anchor points.

  • The base should not move more than an inch from side to side.

  • Then, attach the rear-facing carrier, placing the handlebar in the position suggested by the car seat manufacturer.
