4 Use in the vehicle
4.1 Secure child seat
4.1.1 Select seat
1. Select a suitable seat.
–Car seats with i-Size approval are suitable.
In rare cases, the child seat on car seats with i-
Size approval can only be adjusted within limits.
–Suitable car seats with ISOFIX installation bracket,
which have been tested and approved by us. You
can find these in our model list at www.britax-roe-
mer.com.

uSlide the front seat as far back as possible.
When using on the rear seat:
uSlide the back seat as far back as possible.
uSlide the front seat as far forwards as possible.
4.1.2 Attach insertion aids
The insertion aids simplify connecting the ISOFIX
locking arms of the child seat to the ISOFIX installa-
tion bracket on the car seat. Some vehicles already
have integrated insertion aids. Check whether your
vehicle already has the required insertion aids. If the
vehicle does not have them, Britax Römer recom-
mends using the insertion aids. These are included in
the scope of delivery of the child seat.
