Yes! You can view it here kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y3aBrtuHlqe7nrA.html

Great video. Specially the info about the lower anchors. I wonder if that applies to any car seat. I’m gonna look it up now. My other son weighs more than 40 pounds and we are using the lower anchors on his car seat (different brand). Thank you!

Yes, most heavier car seats will have lower anchor limits. The lower anchor bars in your vehicle are only designed to handle 65 pounds (both car seat and child weight combined), so they do the math and figure out how much the child can weigh using this installation method. Once it's outgrown, you must switch to using the seat belt for installing the car seat. If there's a limit, it will be by the installation diagrams on the car seat where it shows LATCH installation.

Thank you for simplicity

Does the recline position only allow for the ball to reach the middle for the gray and black zone? If my kid is more than 20lbs should the ball be further to the left (in the black zone)?

Yes, I believe they want the child to be more upright if they're over 20 pounds. But to be sure, it's always best to check with the manufacturer themselves. They have a customer service line and can answer any questions you have.

If it’s in the middle of black and white (like you have) is that considered okay position for a child Up to 40lbs. I can’t seem to figure out how to get it REALLY in the black zone. I have it fully in the upright position

Sorry for the late reply! I hope you found the answer you needed, but we always recommend bringing specific car seat installation questions directly to the manufacturer (Evenflo in this case). They have technicians on hand that can help you get their seat installed correctly in your vehicle. You may also choose to get your car seat checked locally by a certified technician. Search for a CPST in your area by clicking on "find a tech" at cert.safekids.org.

Should you always use the top tether strap and the seatbelt straps?

You should always use the top tether. The LATCH system (Lower Anchors and Tether) may be used, or you can use the vehicle's seat belt with the tether. We have a video on that method here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y3aBrtuHlqe7nrA.html

What if you use lower anchors and seatbelt?

Thanks for watching! You should only pick one method (lower anchors OR seat belt), not both at the same time, as they are not designed to be used together (think contacts and glasses). Using the seat belt is the preferred method per the Evenflo manual. Regardless of which method you use, don't forget to always use the tether!

Do you have to use the car seat with the base??

On this car seat, the base must be used.
