Installing our new Diono car seat 

After I confidently decided that a Diono car seat would be the perfect fit for our family, it was time to install the car seat. Like most parents, the thought of installing a new car seat can seem like a daunting task. When it comes to my child’s safety, I usually let the professions handle it. However, after reading the instruction manual and watching the informative installation videos that are on the Diono website http://ca.diono.com/videos I was confident that I would be able to successfully install the car seat. Since my son was 8 months old at the time, it was important to install the car seat rear facing. The installation process was so simple – I couldn’t believe it! For rear-facing installation you need to install a base into the restraint bottom.

One of the things that made the installation process so simple was the clearly marked diagrams and written instructions in the manual.  For the actual installation of the car seat – it was completed in six steps. Each step was clearly explained and included a visual. One of the handy things about the installation guide was the checklist Diono included to verify that the car seat is installed correctly. I installed the car seat and I am sure that after reviewing the manual and watching the video that every parent should feel confident they could do the same thing.
