Figure A illustrates a forward-facing, lap-belt •

can make routing the vehicle belt easier (Fig. D).
Push the child seat firmly into the vehicle 5
seat while removing slack from the vehicle
belt (Fig. E).
Attach the Versa-Tether6
®
hook to the
designated tether anchor for the chosen
seating position. Remove all slack from the
