Installation in Aircraft
2322
This child restraint is certified for aircraft use. Most airlines in
the U.S. and Canada will allow the use of a child restraint, if it
is labeled as an approved child restraint for airline use and fits
properly on the plane. Contact the airline about their policy prior
to traveling.
Place the child restraint next to a
window to avoid blocking the aisle.
If the aircraft lap belt is too short,
ask the flight attendant for a belt
extender.

recommends that the tether be used at all times. Using the
tether will improve the stability of the child restraint and reduce
the risk of injury.
If the vehicle does not currently have a tether anchor attachment,
refer to the vehicle's owner’s manual or contact the vehicle man-
ufacturer for assistance.
If a tether anchorage is not available, DO NOT modify the vehicle
without advice from the vehicle manufacturer.
DO NOT hook the Versa-Tether
®
to the bottom of a vehicle
seat adjuster!
Use of the tether in rear-facing installations is optional but its
use will improve the stability of the child seat.
Always store excess tether webbing in the tether-storage
pouch.
Always store tether in tether-storage pouch when not in use.
