Installation: Forward-Facing
Pull the vehicle belt out, then pass it 4 under
the LATCH bar, through the forward-facing
belt path, then under the LATCH bar on the
opposite side (Fig. B).

make routing the vehicle belt easier (Fig. D).
Verify that the vehicle belt is not twisted, is 5
routed under the LATCH bars, then buckle
(Fig. B).

while removing slack from the vehicle belt

Attach the Versa-Tether7

hook to the designated
tether anchor (if available according to the
vehicle owner’s manual) for the chosen
seating position. Remove all slack from the
tether to secure. Store excess webbing in the
tether pouch. See pages 25–28.
Verify that the vehicle belt is tight, locked and 8
the child seat is secure.
The child seat is secure when it cannot be •
moved front-to-back or side-to-side more than 1
in. (2.5 cm) at the belt path. If the child seat is not
secure, repeat this procedure or use an alternate
seating location.
Lap-Belt Installation
Figure A illustrates a typical forward-facing, lap-•
belt installation.
When not in use, always store the LATCH •
connectors in the storage slots. See page 29.
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 seat. Ensure the 2
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.

chosen seating position, remove the Versa-Tether
from the pouch and
place it up and over the child seat back.
