VEHICLE SEAT BELTS
(continued)
Pull on latch plate
(fig. a)
. If belt slides freely
through latch plate, a locking clip MUST
be used (see Locking Clip section).
Some combination lap/shoulder belts with
sliding latch plates may be converted into an
“automatic locking mode”
that will allow use
without a locking clip. See vehicle owner’s
manual and label on vehicle belts for
instructions.

The locking latch plate on some seat belts may
slip and loosen after being buckled on car seat if
positioned at a certain angle. If this happens,
flip the latch plate over
(fig. b)
and re-buckle.
Test installation again to see if this works. If
not, move car seat to another seating position.
