f your vehicle is equipped with an automatic locking

retractor (ALR), use of lock-offs is not required as

long as ALR is activated. Check your vehicle’s owner’s

manual to determine type of retractor your vehicle

has, and for proper use of retractor.

Verify all connections are secure and that restraint

is stable. The restraint is secure when it cannot be

moved front-to-back or side-to-side more than 1”

(2.5 cm.) at belt path. If the restraint is not secure,

repeat procedure or use an alternate seating

location.

Britax recommends use of the Versa-Tether® to

improve installation. See pages 23-26.

The back angle of the child restraint should be 30º-

45º from vertical (not to exceed 45º from vertical)

when car is parked on a level surface (fig. F).

The proper recline angle can be achieved by placing

a rolled towel or pool noodle in crease of vehicle seat

to help level child restraint’s base.

If there is a problem stabilizing restraint, tighten tether

as described on page 24 using anchor point 3.

Removal

Disconnect the Versa-Tether, if necessary.

While pushing the restraint firmly into the

vehicle seat, release the lock-off and vehicle

belt.

and may damage recline adjustment.
