Britax Boulevard manual Installation Versa-Tether, Safety Information

Page 25

Installation: Versa-Tether®

Safety Information

WARNING! The position of vehicle belt buckle can affect stability of the child restraint. In a crash, an improperly positioned buckle could become loose and the child would be unprotected.

When using restraint in forward-facing mode, attach Versa- Tether® only to tether anchors identified by vehicle manufacturer as tether-anchorage points. Use of other locations is not approved or permitted.

If a tether anchorage is not available, DO NOT modify vehicle without advice from vehicle manufacturer.

DO NOT hook Versa-Tether to bottom of a vehicle seat adjuster!

IMPORTANT:

Britax recommends that tether be used at all times. Using tether will improve the stability of child restraint and reduce risk of injury.

If vehicle does not currently have a tether anchor attachment, refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual or contact vehicle manufacturer for assistance.

The back angle of child restraint should not exceed 45º from vertical when properly installed in rear-facing position.

NOTE: It may be necessary to loosen tether and/or vehicle seat belt before adjusting recline position. Tether and/or vehicle seat belt must be properly re-tightened per the instructions in this manual.

Removal

Disconnect Versa-Tether, if necessary. While pushing restraint firmly into vehicle seat, release lock-off and vehicle belt.
