The Britax Marathon 70 Convertible Car Ceat is designed for children rear facing from 5 to 40 pounds and forward facing from 1 year and 20 lbs up to 70 pounds. The Britax Marathon 70 achieves revolutionary head safety through the use of Britax SafeCell Technology, Integrated Steel Bars, and Versa-Tether that work together to minimize head excursion and reduce the risk of head injury during a frontal impact.
The Britax Marathon 70 also incorporates Britax Side Impact Protection, offers a no-rethread and quick-adjust, five-point harness, multiple buckle and recline adjustments, and an easy access cover and access to belt paths from the front of the seat. A head and body pillow is provided for comfort. For Children: 5 to 70 lbs.
360 Degree Protection Features:
• SafeCell Technology features SafeCells designed to compress in a crash, significantly lowering the center of gravity and counteracting the forward rotation of the child seat which normally propels the child toward the front seat
• Integrated Steel Bars strengthen the connection to the vehicle and reduce forward flexing of the child seat during a crash
• Patented, Energy-Absorbing Versa-Tether features a staged-release tether webbing to slow the forward movement, reducing the crash forces reaching the child, and a two-point attachment to minimize forward rotation while anchoring the top of the child seat
• Side Impact Protection comprised of deep side walls lined with energy-absorbing EPP foam distributes crash forces, shields from vehicle intrusion, and contains the head, neck and body
• Tangle-Free, Five-Point Harness distributes crash forces across the strongest parts of the body and provides a secure fit
• Harness Ultra Guard System (HUGS) provides resistance to forward movement in the event of a crash
Superior Fit and Comfort Features:
• 70-pound Weight Capacity for safety and comfort as your child grows
• Rear and Forward Facing Recline for child comfort and positioning
• High Density Comfort Foam provides an extra layer of padding to gently cushion your child
• Plush, Easy-Remove Cover with matching comfort pads and infant body pillow to provide extra comfort and easy cleaning without disassembling or uninstalling the child seat
• Two Buckle Positions for your growing child
• Rear Facing - 5-40 lbs
• Forward Facing - 1 year and 20 lbs, up to 70 lbs
Superior Ease-of-Use Features:
• Quick-Adjust Harness repositions the harness shoulder height without disassembling the harness straps
• Premium Lower LATCH Connectors for a quick and simple installation featuring a push button for easy release
• Built-in Lock-Offs ensure a snug lap and shoulder belt installation with minimal effort
• Anti-Slip, Contoured Base grips and protects the vehicle seat while offering optimum vehicle fit
