Before you begin:
9 Check that your vehicle has a seat belt that can be locked.
* Check your vehicle owner’s manual to determine what type
of vehicle belt you have and how it can be locked for use with
child seats.
9 Check that your vehicle has a top tether anchor?
* Britax recommends that the Versa-Tether is used at all times.
Using the tether will improve the stability of the child seat and
reduce the risk of injury. Check your vehicle owner’s manual for
tether anchor locations.

®
hook from the storage clip and
place it over the child seat back to keep it from becoming
