FAQ
What is the best way to install a Diono car seat?
Assuming you are talking about a Diono Radian 5 car seat, the best way to install it is as follows:
1)Using the UAS (Universal Anchorage System) and LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) system, locate the lower anchors in your vehicle and attach the included tether strap to the tether anchor. If your vehicle does not have the UAS system, you can use the seat belt to secure the car seat.
2) With the included shoulder harness pads, slide the harness through the slots on the back of the seat. The shoulder harness should be at or slightly above your child’s shoulders.
3)Thread the lap belt through the path marked “Belt” on the sides of the seat, and buckle it. The Diono Radian 5 has a steel frame and aluminum alloy honeycomb core for superior strength and safety.
4)To install the seat using the vehicle’s seat belt, first extend the belt fully and pull it tight. Then, thread the seat belt through the path marked “Seat Belt” on the sides of the seat and click the buckle into place. For a tighter fit, you can pull the shoulder portion of the seat belt to take up any slack.
5)With the car seat in the desired position, push down firmly on the seat while pulling up on the UAS/LATCH connectors or the seat belt to make sure the seat is installed correctly. The seat shouldn’t move more than an inch side-to-side or front-to-back.
How do you know if the car seat is installed correctly?
There are a few ways to tell if a car seat is installed correctly. One way is to check if the seat is at the correct angle. The angle of the seat should be reclined at 45 degrees. Another way to tell if the car seat is installed correctly is to make sure that the harness straps are tightened so that there is no slack, and the harness is at or below the child’s shoulders. Additionally, you can check to see if the car seat base is level with the ground, and not tilted in any direction. Finally, you should make sure that the car seat is secured tightly to the vehicle using the LATCH system or a seat belt, whichever is appropriate for your car seat.
What are the most common mistakes people make when installing a car seat?

How can I make sure my child is safe in their car seat?
Here are a few tips to help ensure your child’s safety while in their car seat:
1. Make sure the car seat is installed correctly. This includes making sure it is properly secured to the vehicle, and that the harness is tightened correctly.
2. Choose the right car seat for your child’s age and size. There are different types of car seats available for different age groups and sizes, so make sure to select the one that is appropriate for your child.
3. Ensure that your child is properly buckled into the car seat. The harness should be snug against their body, and the straps should be positioned correctly over their shoulders.
4. Do not allow your child to play with or remove the car seat harness. This could cause them to become entangled or stuck, which could lead to serious injury in the event of a collision.
5. Inspect the car seat regularly to make sure that it is not damaged or expired. Damaged or expired car seats can reduce their effectiveness in protecting your child in the event of a crash.
