A. The use of LATCH/UAS to position the FRONTIER and FRONTIER 85 in booster mode is a convenience feature. The vehicle seat belt system is restraining the child in the event of an impact. While the 1″ rule is not as important, BRITAX would recommend that you pull the LATCH/lower connector straps tight with reasonable effort and force to remove the slack in the straps (a.k.a. webbing).
