Check How This Car Seat Will
Be Locked Into Place
The vehicle belt
must not
loosen
after tightening. This means there
needs to be a way to lock the vehicle
belt.
The ways this can be done are:
• By using the seat belt’s retractor,
see step 3;
OR
• By using the seat belt’s latch plate,
see step 4.
Check Retractor
Retractors pull seat belts into stored
positions and lock the belt to hold
passengers in place.
See the next page for some common
types of vehicle belt retractors that
will work with this car seat.
