HOW TO INSTALL - TOP TETHER STRAP

C.  Push downwards and rearward on 

the restraint base to compress it into 
the vehicle seat. Whilst compressed 
in the seat, pull on the lap belt to 
remove slack.

D.  If a lap-sash seat belt is used then 

allow the excess sash belt to feed 
back in to the retractor. 

Pull Sash portion 
of seatbelt to 
remove slack

Belt Guide Hooks

If the seat belt will not stay tight in every day use, then fit a 
gated 3-bar slide (not supplied with seat) to the lap-sash belt 
to prevent loosening. See pages 63 and 64. Ensure the 3-bar 
slide is removed when the Baby Capsule base is not installed 
to allow other uses to use the seatbelt as a lap-sash seatbelt.

E.  Locate the child restraint upper anchorage 

fitting in the vehicle that is directly behind 
the rear seat location chosen. Refer to 
the car owner’s manual for the location (If 
there is no upper anchorage fitting then 
refer to pages 58 to 62 for instructions in 
adding an anchor fitting).

F.  Connect the top tether strap attachment 

clip to the anchor fitting in the car as 
detailed on page 29. Install top tether strap 
to the Baby Capsule as shown on page 29.

handle, around the front of the Capsule and 
through the Top Tether Strap guides in the 
front of the Baby Capsule.

C.  Adjust the top tether strap by pulling as shown. 

Remove all slack in the straps. Do not over 
tighten.  Do not allow the tension to lift the base 
from the vehicle seat.
