Britax ROUND ABOUT 50 - Manual (Page 19)

Installation: Rear-Facing
NOTE: If an audible click is not heard when connecting
either LATCH connector, the LATCH strap may be twisted,
or there may be debris in the LATCH connector. Correct
either situation before continuing with the installation
process.
6 Push the child seat firmly into the vehicle seat
while pulling the LATCH strap tight (Fig. F).
IMPORTANT: Ensure the LATCH strap does not fold
into the LATCH adjuster while tightening.
7 Verify that all connections are secure and that the
child seat is stable.
• The child seat is secure when it cannot be moved
more than 1 in. (2.5 cm) front-to-back or side-to-side
at the belt path. If the child seat is not secure, repeat
the installation process or use an alternate seating
location.
• When properly installed in the rear-facing position, the
back angle of the child seat should be 30º – 45º from
vertical (not to exceed 45º) when the car is parked on
a level surface (Fig. G).
• If necessary, the proper recline angle can be
achieved by placing a rolled towel or pool noodle in
the vehicle seat bight to level the child seat’s base.
• Rear-facing installation can be improved by the use of the Versa-Tether.
