Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)

The Automatic Locking Retractor causes the seat belt to lock when pulled very

quickly. ALR can be used to secure a child seat.

Activate ALR

1. Draw out the seat belt completely.
2. Retract the seat belt to the desired length to activate locking the seat belt in

that position. Once locked, the seat belt cannot be extended further.

NOTE

For child seats installed with LATCH, reverse the procedures of LATCH

installation to remove the seat. See the child seat manufacturer’s instructions

for additional details.
