• Booster Mode: Use only with children who weigh between 40 and 120 lbs (18 and 54 kg) and whose height is between 44 and 63 in. (110 and 160 cm).
• Snugly adjust the belts provided with this child restraint around your child.

INSTALLATION

• Secure the top anchorage strap provided with this child seat.
• Use only the vehicle's lap and shoulder belt system when restraining the child in this booster seat.
• Secure this child restraint with the vehicle's child restraint anchorage system if available or with a vehicle belt.

GENERAL USAGE

• Follow all instructions on this child restraint and in the written instructions.
• Register your child restraint with the manufacturer.
• Britax recommends that the top tether be used at all times when installing the child seat. Using the top tether will improve the stability of your child seat and reduce the risk of injury.
• Use this child seat forward-facing only.
• This child seat must be used in upright position in booster mode.
• In a vehicle with rear designated seating positions, vehicle owners should be alerted that, according to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seating positions. To ensure your child's safety, please study Vehicle Seating Positions on page 37 and consult your vehicle owner's manual.
• To prevent injury due to deterioration or hidden damage, discontinue use of this child seat when it is older than nine (9) years or has been in a moderate or severe crash. See expiration date on Serial Number and Manufactured Date Label located on the child seat shell. See page 3.

• Always make sure the child restraint system is secured to the vehicle, even when unoccupied, since in a crash an unsecured child restraint system may injure occupants. The unoccupied child seat can be secured to the vehicle by attaching the lower connectors to the lower anchors in the vehicle, or by fastening the vehicle seatbelt across the unoccupied child seat.

• The use of non-Britax covers, inserts, toys, accessories, or tightening devices is not approved by Britax. Their use could cause this child seat to fail Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or not perform as intended in a crash.

• Grow With You ClickTight Plus - Prevent the Side Impact Cushions from being punctured. Puncture damage will cause the cushions not to perform as intended in a crash.

Important Notes

• Third party recommendations are subject to change, so we recommend you visit their websites for the most up to date recommendations.
• Before each use, check this child seat and its components to make sure they are in good condition and good working order.
• Do not install with the lower anchors for a child weighing more than 40 lbs (18.1 kg).
• Discontinue use of this child seat if it has been in a moderate or severe crash. It is not necessary to replace a car seat after a minor crash defined by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) as:
  * The vehicle is driveable from the crash site; and
  * The vehicle door nearest the child seat was not damaged; and
  * No vehicle occupants were injured; and
  * There is no visible damage to the child seat; and
  * The airbags (if present) did not deploy.
• Cover the child seat when the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight. Metal parts of child seat could become hot enough to burn a child.
• Store the child seat in a safe place when it is not being used. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of it.
• Do not, except as described in this booklet, attempt to disassemble any part of the child seat or change the way the harness or vehicle's seat belts are used.
• Never use the harness or adjuster strap to lift or carry this child seat. Doing so could damage the harness adjuster and webbing. Always carry this child seat by the shell or tether straps.

WARNING!

In some cases, the vehicle head restraint can prevent the child seat head restraint from being raised high enough to properly adjust the harness for the fit of your child. DO NOT force the child seat head restraint past the vehicle head restraint. Doing so could cause the child seat not to perform as intended. If the location of the vehicle head restraint interferes with the child seat head restraint, raise or remove the vehicle head restraint. If the vehicle head restraint cannot be removed, move the child seat to the upright position or try a different seating location.

Overhang

Harness Mode

It is important that the base of the child seat rests completely flat on the vehicle seat with no side overhang. As seen in the illustration, it is permissible to allow up to 3 in. (7.6 cm) of the base to hang over the front edge of the vehicle seat. If the vehicle seat does not allow enough of the child seat base to make contact, adjust the recline angle to a more upright position. Not doing so could cause the child seat to not perform as intended.

Using Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH)

LATCH SYSTEM ANCHOR LOCATIONS

The Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children or LATCH, is a system available on this child seat that offers an alternative to vehicle seat belt installation methods. The figure below shows typical locations for lower anchors and tether anchors in a vehicle. See pages 2-3 for LATCH components on this child seat.

Check your vehicle owner's manual to learn if it is equipped with LATCH, the maximum weight rating for the lower anchors, tether anchors capacities, and information on the lower anchor locations and designated seating positions available for use with this child seat.

Using the Lower Connectors

The lower connectors are located under the CLICKTIGHT in the lower connector storage compartment. Store the lower connectors in this compartment when not in use.

Using the Impact Absorbing Tether

WARNING!

Attach the tether only to tether anchors identified by your vehicle manufacturer as tether anchorage points.

If your vehicle does not currently have a tether anchor attachment, refer to your vehicle owner's manual or contact your vehicle man u fac tur er for assistance. DO NOT modify your vehicle without advice from your vehicle manufacturer.

HARNESS MODE: Britax recommends that the top tether be used at all times when installing the child seat. Using the top tether will improve the stability of your child seat and reduce the risk of injury.

BOOSTER MODE: Do not use top tether without securing lower connectors.

Tether anchor locations vary from vehicle to vehicle. Check your vehicle owner's manual and look for the tether anchor symbol shown in the diagram to help identify where the top tether anchor point is located in your vehicle.

To attach the tether to a tether anchor:

1. Remove the webbing from the elastic strap and loosen the tether.

1. Firmly press the hook over the a tether anchor point.

Diagram of a ramp with red motion arrows indicating acceleration (no text or symbols)

IMPORTANT: Use the elastic strap to contain extra webbing. Always ensure any excess webbing is contained within your vehicle.

The Tether as a Crash Indicator

The tether can indicate when the child seat has been in a moderate or severe crash and replacement of the child seat is necessary.

IMPORTANT: Discontinue use of child seat if it has been involved in a moderate or severe crash, regardless of whether the loops have pulled through the back side of the shell and the colored stitching has been ripped.

Figure 1 shows the tether when the child seat is acceptable for continued use (provided the child seat has not been involved in a crash). The colored stitching will be intact and the webbing will be held under a tether label.

Figures 2 and 3 show examples of when the child seat is unacceptable for continued use. If the tether label is torn, or if one or both of the loops have pulled through the back side of the shell and/or any of the colored stitching has ripped, the child seat is no longer acceptable for use.
