Britax Companion Safety Advisory

In an effort to continually improve their instructional materials, Britax has updated the Companion User Guide. The purpose of this update is to provide further clarification on the adjustment of the buckle strap position and maximum height for infant carrier use.

Buckle Strap Positioning

The Companion features two buckle strap positions in order to accommodate infants between four and 22 pounds. The inner position should be used for infants weighing less than 11 pounds. Once the child has reached a weight of 11 pounds, move the buckle strap to the outer position and maintain this buckle position for the remainder of use with that child. Please note that you may move the buckle strap to the outer position prior to your child reaching a weight of 11 pounds, if your child’s growth and comfort necessitates this adjustment.

Maximum Height for Use

A child has exceeded the height requirement for the Companion when the top of the head is less than one inch from the top of the child restraint or the child’s height exceeds 30 inches (76 cm).
Consumers who own a Companion child restraint manufactured prior to November 1, 2007 and have registered their restraint will be sent an updated user guide and product labels to provide further clarification on product usage. Those consumers that have not registered their child restraint should contact Britax Consumer Services at 1-888-427-4829 or register their product online at www.BritaxUSA.com.
