Properly installing a Britax Car Seat is not always a simple job. On the other hand, the results can be life-saving for the baby. First of all, locate the lower LATCH anchor in your car. In case you didn't know the LATCH stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children. Not all cars have LATCH points to attach to. Some pre-2000 model year cars do have them. Your car owner's manual will tell you if your older model has them. They are usually marked with a button on upholster in order for you to be able to notice them more easily.
Next, you have to adjust the foot on the base in order to fit well the car seat. In case you are using a simple LATCH connector you need to ensure that the open end is facing down. Once you do this you can simply attach the LATCH connector to the anchor in your car seat on both sides ensuring that you hear a firm click once you do this. After this you should pull on the strap and than just push down on the base on the side closest to the end of the strap. And now comes the boring part - you have to repeat this process until the strap is extremely tight. In order to make sure that it is tight enough you should check for tightness at the belt path. And you always have to keep in mind that it should move less than 1 inch (which is equivalent to 2.5 centimeters) when you try to move it both side-to-side and front-to-back.
Your vehicle seat will move quite a lot by your child's head and that is totally normal. Do not think something is wrong with the seat. What's more it will be able to be flipped back toward the rear of your car and that is known as rebound. Simply, there is nothing holding the vehicle seat down there.
Finally, check the recline angle with the triangle or you can just use safety angle indicator which is my favorite feature. For example, the 45 degree angle is just perfect for your newborn baby. And remember, you must check out your manual before installing the Britax Infant Car Seat.
The Britax Car Seat is different to many of the others on the marketplace. It is designed especially with babies in mind.
