Lap-Shoulder Belt Installation

Before You Begin:
• Check that your vehicle belt is compatible for use with child
seats. See pages 6 – 8 for more information.
* If your vehicle seat belt system includes a locking feature,
use of the lock-offs is not required as long as the vehicle seat
belt system is locked. Check your vehicle owner's manual to
determine how to lock your vehicle seat belt system when
installing a child restraint.
• Remove the Versa-Tether from the pouch and place it up and
over the child seat back.
* Britax recommends that the Versa-Tether is 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
tether anchor locations. Only attach the Versa-Tether to anchor
points designated to the chosen seating position as indicated
by your vehicle owner's manual.
• Adjust this child seat to position 1 or 2 and place forward-facing
on the vehicle seat (see page 15).
* Ensure that no more than 20% or 3 in. (7.6 cm) of the base
hangs over the edge of the vehicle seat.
Install with the lap-shoulder belt as shown above.
WARNING!
• Your child seat may not perform as intended if the base of the child
seat is not flat on the vehicle seat.
• HUGS chest pads must be installed when using the child seat in a
forward-facing position.
