These are the rules you must follow to restrain your children safely. You must read your carseat and vehicle owner’s manual and understand any relevant state laws. If you'll unhook the cover from the part where your kiddos feet go, you'll be able to pull on the belt through the belt path much easier, w/o catching the buckle on the plastic edge.īTW-look at the Graco My Ride, Evenflo Triumph Advance or Momentum, or Symphony, OR the Learning Curve True Fit. The towel will help it recline back more AND give you more room to get the belt adjusted. Use a tightly rolled up towel under the feet area of it, and make sure that the little plastic piece for forward facing (if it has one) is folded under the seat. Read the instructions and find out if you can remove the base-it makes more room to manuver the belts and your hands.

That said, if it's the newer AO w/the 50 lbs weight limit, the two worst things about it are trying to install it rearfacing and that you should NEVER use it as a booster for any child (it's a horrible booster, so if you bought it thinking that it will save you $ later, it won't). There are better and easier choices in the same price range. If you don't have another carseat, I would get it installed properly if you must take baby with you or leave baby at home, while you go get another one. Even w/the latch belt, it's not always the easiest. Every Ford my family has had has long/ish buckle stalks and the AO has a short base, so they can clash. Alpha Omega's in Fords often seem to be a bit difficult rearfacing w/the seatbelt.
