Verify that there is tension in the tether strap and that child

restraint is properly secured.

IMPORTANT:

The proper child restraint angle is the angle where your

child rests comfortably back, but never more than 45 degrees from

vertical.

Releasing the Versa-Tether

To release the Versa-Tether, push the adjuster button down and

inwards on the tether strap, and pull to loosen. Unhook the teth-

er from tether anchor point to release child restraint. This method

occasionally may be difficult. An alternative method is to release

the seat belt first.

Using the Tether Connector Strap (rear facing only)

Sometimes it is not possible to find a location to properly anchor the

tether or the structural part of the seat is too large for the hook. Use

the tether connector strap to assist in connecting to an anchor point.

1

Locate a seat frame bar, vehicle seat leg, or a fixed vehicle seat belt

anchor that is bolted to the floor which the strap can be wrapped

around.

2

Loop the strap around the metal

anchor, then take the metal d-ring

and lace it through the hole on the

other side of the strap.

3

Pull the metal d-ring all the way

through until strap is tight around

the tether anchor.

4

Attach the tether hook to the

strap or d-ring.
