Switching the Lower Connector System (LCS)

The LCS strap may need to be switched to the proper

belt path in rear-facing (Fig. A) versus forward-facing

(Fig. B) installations. If a proper connection of the LCS

connectors to the LUAS anchors cannot be achieved,

complete the following procedure to switch the

connectors.

Lift the front of the child seat cover to access the

1

LCS connectors.

Pass the LCS connector strap through the belt

2

path on the child’s right side (Fig. C).

Pass one LCS connector through the appropriate

3

belt path ensuring that the larger part of the

connector is on top for the installation procedure

you wish to use (Fig D).

Verify that the harness is not twisted.

IMPORTANT: When installing this child seat in rear-

facing mode, the LCS strap must rest behind the

child seat buckle strap.

NOTE: To ensure LCS connector is properly aligned

with vehicle’s LUAS anchor, the connector’s red

release button should face away from vehicle seat

back, and the larger of the two connector sections is

on top (Fig. D).

Replace the cover and continue with the installation

procedure.

Storing the LCS Connectors

When the LCS connectors are not in use, lift the

child seat cover to access LCS storage slots (Fig. E).

Fold each end of the LCS strap and slide each LCS

connector into the adjacent slots.

NOTE : Child seats are shipped from Britax with LCS

connectors in the storage slots.

Recline Adjustment

Pull the recline handle then slide the child seat shell into

the desired position. (Fig. F) Release the recline handle

and verify the child seat has locked into position.

It will be necessary to loosen the tether,

vehicle seat belt, and/or LCS strap before adjusting

the recline position. The tether, vehicle seat belt,

and/or LCS strap must be properly re-tightened after

adjusting the recline position.
