Installation in Harness Mode

Lap-Shoulder Belt
Before you begin:
• 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� If your vehicle
belt does not lock, a locking clip must be used� Call
Britax Consumer Services at 1-888-427-4829 or
1-704-409-1699 to obtain a locking clip�
• Check that your vehicle has a top tether anchor�
Britax recommends that the top tether be used at all
times when installing the child seat� Using the top
tether will improve the stability of your child seat and
reduce the risk of injury� Check your vehicle owner's
manual for tether anchor locations�
• Loosen the tether and place it over the child seat
back to keep it from becoming pinned between the
child seat and vehicle seat during installation�
• Adjust the child seat to desired position and place
forward facing on the vehicle seat�
1� Pull seat cover forward�
2� Pull the vehicle belt out
and route both the lap and
shoulder portions of the

belt path� Verify that the

NOTE: The child seat is secure when it cannot be
