Aircraft Installation
This child seat is certified for aircraft use. Most
airlines in the U.S. and Canada will allow use of a
child seat as long as it is labeled as an approved
child seat for airline use and fits properly on plane.
Contact the airline about their policy prior to
traveling.
The FAA recommends that a child weighing up to 40 pounds use a
certified, harnessed child seat while traveling on an aircraft.
Install your child seat in a window seat to avoid blocking the aisle.
If the aircraft lap belt is too short, ask the flight attendant for a belt
extender.
Rear-Facing Installation
For rear-facing aircraft installation (Fig.
A), follow Rear-Facing Lap-Belt Installation
instructions on pages 16 – 17.
NOTE: To aid installation on aircraft, open the
rear-facing lock-offs to allow routing of large
buckles.
Forward-Facing Installation
For forward-facing aircraft installation (Fig.
B), follow Forward-Facing Lap-Belt Installation
instructions on pages 22 – 23.

WARNING!
•
When using the child seat in forward-facing mode, attach the
Versa-Tether only to tether anchors identified by the vehicle
manufacturer as tether anchorage points. Use of other locations
is not approved or permitted.
•
DO NOT
modify the vehicle without advice from the vehicle
manufacturer if a tether anchorage is not available.
Britax recommends that the tether be used at all times. Using the
tether will improve the stability of the child seat and reduce the risk of
injury.
If your vehicle does not currently have a tether anchor attachment,
refer to your vehicle owner's manual or contact the vehicle
manufacturer for assistance.
