Versa-T T ether™
WARNING:
NEVER ATTACH A FORWARD FACING TETHER TO A
LOCATION THAT IS NOT RECOMMENDED BY YOUR VEHICLE
MANUFACTURER, OR TO A LOCATION THAT YOU BELIEVE IS
INCORRECT OR NOT STRONG ENOUGH. IF THE TETHER
ANCHOR COMES LOOSE IN A CRASH, THE METAL HOOK CAN
INJURE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS.
•
Britax recommends that the tether be used at all times. Using
the tether will improve the stability of your child restraint 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
your vehicle manufacturer for assistance.
•
If a tether anchor is not available, DO NOT modify your vehicle
without advice from your vehicle manufacturer.
•
DO NOT Hook the Versa-Tether to the bottom of a vehicle
seat adjuster!

WARNING:
The position of the vehicle seat
belt buckle can affect the stability of your
child restraint. In an accident, an improp-
erly positioned buckle could come loose
and your child would be unprotected.
If the buckle lies near the position marked
as wrong, ( ) when the vehicle belt is tight-
ened, try fitting your child restraint in anoth-
er seating position in your vehicle.
If it is not possible to achieve the correct
position ( ) for the buckle, then another
seating position MUST be used.

Check that your child
restraint is secure before each trip.
