Installation in Harness Mode
Lap-Shoulder Belt with CLICKTIGHT (Preferred Method)
Before you begin:
•
Check that your vehicle has a top tether anchor�
The top tether MUST be used in harness mode
for children that weigh more than 65 lbs (29�5 kg)�
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�
