type of retractor your vehicle has, and how to lock
the retractor.

Lap-Shoulder Belt Installation
Figure A illustrates a forward-facing lap-shoulder •
belt installation.
When not in use, always store the LATCH connectors •
in the storage slots. See page 29.
WARNING!
This child seat must not be used forward-facing •
for children less than one year of age OR who
weigh less than 20 lbs (9.1 kg).
This child seat must be in full upright position •
when installed forward-facing for children who
weigh more than 33 pounds (15.1 kg).
If the vehicle is equipped with a designated 1
tether anchor for the chosen seating position,
remove the Versa-Tether
from the pouch and
place it up and over the child seat back.
IMPORTANT: Britax recommends that the Versa-Tether
be
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 approved tether locations.
Place the child seat forward-facing on the vehicle 2
seat. Ensure the bottom of the child seat base is in full
contact with the vehicle seat.
TIP: You may need to raise or remove the vehicle head
restraint to achieve best fit of the child seat.
Rotate the lock-off lever to open the forward-facing lock-off farthest 3
from where the vehicle belt will be buckled.
Pull vehicle belt out, then pass it 4 over the LATCH bar, through the
forward-facing belt path, then over the LATCH bar on the opposite
side (Fig. B).
TIP: Turning the back of the child seat toward you can make routing the vehicle
belt easier (Fig. C).
