The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recommends
that parents select the rear seat as the safest location for a child seat.
However, the actual dimensions of the seat and the details of the
belts used to anchor the child seat differ from vehicle to vehicle.
Please study the section on Compatible Seat Belts. If in doubt, consult
your vehicle owner's manual and your Britax dealer.
The primary protection for occupants of a motor vehicle in a collision
is the structure of the vehicle itself, and a child restraint will not
protect a child when the vehicle sustains very serious damage.
However, correctly installed restraints will substantially improve the
chances for survival in most accidents. Make sure that you understand
the correct way to use this restraint in your vehicle.
