Britax Marathon Questions & Answers
My daughter seems to be very uncomfortable when in
Well the first thing to ask is.....is the seat new, if so did she do this in previous seats. If the issue is new and the seat is one she did not have issues with before you can try to remove the cover to be sure nothing is poking her. Also if the straps are too snug around the thighs it will make for a rough ride for the child. If all else fails return it to the store and dont be afraid to bring her along to "Test" a different seat prior to buying it!
We need a tether can
The top tether should attached to the seat already. There is a storage back in the centre of the cover which it may be stored in. The universal anchor straps are attached as well and may be hidden under the cover where the child bum would be if sitting in the seat.
If you need tether anchor points installed (often in older vehicles), I would suggest you contact your dealership. I had 2 installed in my 98' as they are required in Canada for forward facing seats. It is often done free or at minimal cost.
Stuck in recline
I know this post is old but I figured somebody w/the same problem might come across this. I had the same problem with my Marathon today. I also own a Roundabout & had no problem changing the recline myself. When my husband came home he took a look & fixed it. All he did was put it in the upright postion , held it in place & turned the seat on it's side & pushed up on the base and it clicked! he pushed on one of the corners (but I don't know if that even matters)
Bought used Britax Marathon and Roundabout
Go to the Britax website they have a pretty detailed explaination. Basically use the latch clips put your knee in it and pull tight. where you get the real security is though the tether that comes of the back of the headrest, you attach that to the floor clip in your car or under the front seat if you dont have one.
Where is the model # for the Britax Marathon
HI,
WIth most carseats there should be a label underneath the seat (directly underneath where the bottom would be) this should have a barcode, product name and colour.
I hope this helps.
How do you raise the shoulder straps up to a
The straps must be undone from a claw on the underside of the car seat so you have to remove the whole thing from the car. The claw is designed to keep the straps in place and this it does very well but its position on the undercarraige leaves no room for your hands and makes it near impossible to manage.
