First note that some vehicles have no seating ositions which
are compatible with the Roundabout (or any c 1. rld seat). Read
this section carefully. If in doubt, return to your vehicle or Britax
dealer for help.
There are several types of vehicle belts that will not work with
the Roundabout:
l
Front seat belts with anchorages (top or bottom) in the door.
l
Motor driven automatic belts of any kind.
l
Non-locking (ELR) two-point seat-belts.
l
Seat belts specified by your vehicle manufacturer as incom-
patible with child seats.
The handbook for your vehicle will have information on the types
of seat belts in your vehicle. If you have belts of the above-listed
types, select another seating position. Roundabout will work with
rear seat three-point seat-belts with a sliding latch
with rear seat three-point seat-belts that are specifica ly marked P
late, and
as appropriate for child seats. The middle rear seat of most ve-
hicles has a lap belt which most often will work with the Round-
about However, make sure that the buckle is not too high (see
Buckle Position, page 22).
Your Roundabout can be securely fitted in many vehicles using
their existing seat-belts, However, some types of vehicle design
prevent you from making a ood installation due to the posi-
tion of the seat-belt lower ant orage points (an anchorage point a
is the point where your seat belt and buckle are attached to the
vehicle).
Use this simple guide to check your seat-belts and help you
choose the best position for your Roundabout.
