Aircraft Installation Installation: Versa-Tether
®
Aircraft Installation
This child seat is certified for aircraft use. Most
airlines in the U.S. and Canada will allow use of
a child seat as long as it is labeled as an approved
child seat for airline use and fits properly on
plane. Contact the airline about their policy
prior to traveling.
The FAA recommends that a child weighing
up to 40 pounds use a certified, harnessed
child seat while traveling on an aircraft.
Install your child seat in a window seat to
avoid blocking the aisle.
If the aircraft lap belt is too short, ask the
flight attendant for a belt extender.

follow Rear-Facing Lap-Belt Installation
instructions on pages 16 – 17.
Forward-Facing Installation
For forward-facing aircraft installation
(Fig. B), follow Forward-Facing Lap-Belt
Installation instructions on pages 22 – 23.

WARNING!
When using the child seat in forward-facing
mode, attach the Versa-Tether
®
only to tether anchors
identified by the vehicle manufacturer as tether anchorage
points. Use of other locations is not approved or permitted.
DO NOT modify the vehicle without advice from the vehicle
manufacturer if a tether anchorage is not available.
DO NOT hook the Versa-Tether
®
to the bottom of a vehicle seat
adjuster!
IMPORTANT:
Britax recommends that the tether be used at all times. Using
the tether will improve the stability of the child seat and reduce
the risk of injury.
If your vehicle does not currently have a tether anchor
attachment, refer to your vehicle owner’s manual or contact the
vehicle manufacturer for assistance.
The back angle of the child seat should not exceed 45º from
vertical when properly installed in rear-facing position.
