Sliding Latch Plate
and ALR Retractor
A latch plate that
slides freely on the belt
webbing and cannot, by
itself, hold the belt snug
around a car seat.
Slowly pull the
shoulder belt all the
way out.
Route the
vehicle seat belt through
the proper belt path and
buckle it in. Then, as you
pull the vehicle seat belt
tight, feed all the slack
back into the retractor.
Grab the sides of the base
or seat at the belt path
and slide side-to-side and
front-to-back. The base
or seat should not move
more than 1” (2.5 cm).
