Britax Boulevard manual Installation Rear Facing

Installation: Rear Facing

•If 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.

8�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.
