| Evaluation of Labels |
No supplemental sizing information is given on the labels. The tether is not labeled in the illustrations depicting acceptable modes of installation. No indication of correct harness height relative to the child is given on the labels. The belt routing path is not sufficiently labeled. The labels do not explain how to use LATCH or the tether hook. |
| Evaluation of Instructions |
The instruction manual storage may be difficult to find, and it cannot be accessed when a child is seated in the seat. Supplemental sizing information is given in text only (not illustrated) in the manual. |
| Securing the Child |
The car seat was not fully assembled when it was removed from its packaging. Replacing the harness after using the seat in booster mode requires multiple steps which should be followed in the owner's manual. The harness must be rethreaded to adjust height for the child's growth as well as for reassembly after cleaning. When disassembling for cleaning, loose parts may be generated. |
| Installation Features |
The car seat is equipped with hook-style LATCH attachments which may require twisting to remove from the lower anchors in the vehicle. The storage location for the LATCH belt and/or the tether strap is not obvious and may be overlooked. |
