Okay, so the Decathalon is on it's way back to Britax. We are borrowing a SS1 until it comes back. I read the manual, but I'm still confused.
Both the lap and shoulder portions of the belt are through the lockoff and the lockoff is closed. Do I need to lock the seatbelt? I did, although I can't get it terribly tight. The seat would tip or the lockoff wouldn't close if I got it super tight. I have the switchable retracting seatbelts, I think. I can lock them by pulling them all the way out, or the lock in an emergency.
Other than this confusion on my part, it seems like a nice seat. Easier to install than the snugride, and the recline foot seems nice.
Also: my daughter is tiny. I had to moved the straps down to the lowest setting. Otherwise, they were above her shoulders.
