Britax Diplomat manual Lap/Shoulder Belt Installation

Installation: Forward Facing

Lap/Shoulder Belt Installation

•Figure A illustrates a typical forward-facing lap/ shoulder-belt installation.

•When not in use, always store LATCH connectors in storage slots.

1�Place child restraint forward facing on vehicle seat.

•Restraint can be used in recline position when installed in forward-facing mode with children up to 40 pounds (18 kg.).

•Britax recommends use of Versa-Tether® to

improve installation. If using Versa-Tether®(see pages 23-26), locate tether on rear of restraint and place up and over seat back while securing restraint.

2�Pull the vehicle belt out, then pass it through both forward-facing belt slots (Fig. B).

3�Verify that the vehicle belt is not twisted, then buckle (Fig. C).

4�Rotate the lock-off lever downward to open (Fig. D).

•Only use lock-off farthest from where the vehicle belt is buckled.

5�Push child restraint into the vehicle seat while pulling the shoulder portion of the vehicle belt tightly through the lock-off to remove slack.
