Hook the shoulder strap back
onto the connection piece.

Pull the strap forward to remove any slack. Make sure
the harness is threaded through the buckle tongues as
shown above. Repeat from step 2 with the other strap.
Then put the connection piece back behind the seat-belt
guard.

Forward Anchorages

Put the ruler printed on the left-hand side of this

page  on  your  car  seat  in  the  position  shown

above. Now decide if both of the lower anchorage

points are in line with the grey or red area of the

ruler. If they are in the grey area, as shown above,

then you can use this position for the PRINCE.

REMEMBER -

Although  your  seat-belt  anchorage  points  fall

within the shaded area, a better installation may

be achieved by reclining the PRINCE.

If either of the lower anchorage points are in the red

area, as shown above, then you should use another

position, for example the middle of the rear seat

using the lap belt.

If you are installing your seat on the other side of

the car use the ruler printed on page 3.

Lower
anchorage point

The PRINCE can be securely fitted in many cars using their existing seat-belts. However, some 
types of car design can prevent you from making a good installation due to the position of the 
seat-belt lower anchorage points (an anchorage point is the point where your seat-belt and buckle 
are attached to the vehicle).
