Child Seat Functions
Storing the LATCH Connectors
When the LATCH connectors are not in use, lift
the child seat cover to access LATCH storage
slots (Fig. A). Fold each end of the LATCH
strap and slide each LATCH connector into the
adjacent slots.
NOTE:
Britax child seats are shipped with LATCH
connectors in the storage slots.
Recline Adjustment
Pull the recline handle then slide the child seat
shell into the desired position. (Fig. B) Release
the recline handle and verify the child seat has
locked into position.
NOTE:
If installed it will be necessary to loosen
the tether, vehicle seat belt, and/or LATCH strap
before adjusting the recline position. The tether,
vehicle seat belt, and/or LATCH strap must be properly re-tightened after
adjusting the recline position.
Using the Locking Clip

through step 5 on pages 16-21 for rear-facing,
or pages 22-27 for forward-facing.
