Lap Belt Installation - Britax Marathon 65 User Manual

Forward-Facing Installation

Lap Belt Installation

Before You Begin:
Check that your vehicle belt is compatible for use with child
seats. See pages 6 – 8 for more information.
Remove the Versa-Tether from the pouch and place it up and
over the child seat back.
* The Versa-Tether must be used at all times. Using the tether will
improve the stability of the child seat and reduce the risk of injury.
Check your vehicle owner's manual for tether anchor locations.
Only attach the Versa-Tether to anchor points designated to the
chosen seating position as indicated by your vehicle owner's
manual.
Adjust this child seat to position 1 or 2 and place forward-facing
on the vehicle seat (see page 15).
* Ensure that no more than 20% or 7.6 cm (3 inches) of the base
hangs over the edge of the vehicle seat.
Install with the lap belt as shown above.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT use lock-offs for lap belt installations.
WARNING!
Your child seat may not perform as intended if the base of the child
seat is not flat on the vehicle seat.
Some vehicle head restraints may obstruct
the harness adjuster from reaching the
highest position. If this is the case, you may
need to raise or remove the vehicle head
restraint. DO NOT force the child seat head
pad past the vehicle head restraint. Doing so
could cause the child seat not to perform as
intended.
