Belts Forward of Seat Bight

Vehicle seat belts located forward of seat bight (fig. a & b) may not

securely hold car seat. Check vehicle owner's manual or see vehicle

dealer for car seat installation requirements.

• If seating position is approved for use with car seat, install

car seat and check for secure installation by pulling car seat front

to back. If car seat slides forward or vehicle seat belt does not

stay tight, DO NOT use these seat belts.

Lap Belts - Manually Adjustable

Manually adjustable lap belts (fig. c) normally will hold a car seat tightly. However, in some

cases, the locking latch plate on some seat belts may slip and loosen if positioned at a

certain angle. If this happens, flip latch plate over (fig. c) and re-buckle. Test installation

again to see if lap belt stays tight. If not, move car seat to another seating location.

Lap Belts - With Retractor

Lap belts with retractors (fig. d) may or may not hold a car seat securely.

Follow these steps to determine if you have a retractor system that will hold car seat securely:

a. Pull belt all the way out.

b. Allow belt to retract about 6 inches (15 cm).

c. Pull out on belt again.

If belt is locked and you cannot pull the belt out any further, you have an Automatic Locking

Retractor which may be used with a car seat. Remember, when installing a car seat, pull

belt all the way out, buckle belt, and then tighten.

If the belt pulls out (step c), the retractor is an Emergency Locking Retractor which must not

be used with a car seat.

Pull out on latch plate. If belt slides freely through latch plate

used (see Belt Lock-off section).

- For rear-facing, use the blue belt lock-off to secure the lap belt. See "Belt Lock-off" section.

- For forward-facing, use the red shoulder belt lock-off on the base to secure the lap and

shoulder belt.

Some combination lap/shoulder belts with free sliding latch plates may be converted into an

"automatic locking mode". Always use the belt lock-off with these belt systems.

location.
