Vehicle Belt Systems
THE FOLLOWING BELT SYSTEMS CAN BE USED WITH YOUR
INFANT RESTRAINT, IF the seat location meets all other requirements
of these instructions and those in your vehicle owner's manual. LATCH
can be used in place of the vehicle belt system. Please refer to vehicle
owners manual for LATCH locations.
• Lap Belts - Manually Adjusted
When buckled, the belt is
tightened manually by pulling
on the excess belt while pushing
down hard on the infant restraint.
• Lap Belts with Automatic
Locking Retractor (ALR)
The automatic locking retractor
will not permit the lap belt to
lengthen once it is buckled. Tighten
the belt by feeding the belt back
into the retractor while pushing
down hard on the infant restraint.
• Combination Lap/Shoulder Belt
with Locking Latch Plate
Once it is buckled, this type of
belt has a latchplate that will not
allow the lap portion of the belt to
loosen. Belt is tightened by pulling
hard on the shoulder portion of the
vehicle belt while pushing down
hard on the infant restraint.
