The KidFit Zip Plus typically comes in two main parts: the booster base and the high-back section. Align the high-back section with the slots on the booster base and push down firmly until it clicks into place. Ensure it is securely attached.

2. Locate the LATCH connectors on the booster seat. These are typically found at the rear of the booster base.
3. Attach the LATCH connectors to your vehicle's lower anchor bars. Push firmly until you hear a click, indicating a secure connection.
4. Use the SuperCinch one-pull tightener (a strap at the front of the base) to tighten the LATCH system, pulling until the booster seat is snug against the vehicle seat back.
5. Adjust the headrest height so that the shoulder belt guide is at or slightly above your child's shoulders. The 10-position headrest can be adjusted by squeezing the lever at the top of the headrest and sliding it up or down.
