This car bed is not certified for aircraft use.

WARNING: 

ELR lap-only belts MUST NOT be used 

with this car bed.

• Switchable Retractor

These belts switch from ELR to ALR (Automatic Locking Retractor). You 

MUST

 have the vehicle belts in the locking mode to use them. 

With a switchable retractor, pull the shoulder belt all the way out to 
switch the retractor into the ALR mode before tightening. 

Feed the slack back into the retractor while tightening. 

• ALR (Automatic Locking Retractor)

These belts lock after pulling the webbing out and letting the belt go 
back into the retractor an inch or two. 

With an ALR belt, pull the belt all the way out before threading through 
the car bed.

Vehicle Latch Plates

• Check Latch Plates

Grasp the tongue portion of the latch plate (the part that goes inside 
the buckle) and pull straight out, in line with the lap belt. 

If the latch plate does not slide up 
and down the vehicle belt, you have 
a locking latch plate. You should not 
need to use a locking clip. 

If the latch plate slides up and down 
on the belt, and you have an ELR 
retractor, you

 

MUST

 use a locking 

clip to install the car bed. See pages 
31-32.

You may not need to use the locking clip with a switchable or ALR 
retractor.

Safety Tips:

Children are safer when 
properly restrained in rear 
seating positions than in the 
front seating positions.

According to National Highway Traffi c Safety Adminis-
tration information, children in rear seating positions 
are statistically safer, whether you have air bags, 
advanced air bags, or no air bags at all.

To avoid your child being seriously burned, take the 
following precautions:

1.

 Park in the shade or where sun does not directly hit the 

car bed

.

2. 

Cover the 

car bed

 with a sheet or blanket when not in 

use.

3.

 Check for hot seat and buckles before placing child in 

car bed

.

To help protect your vehicle seat’s upholstery from damage, 
use a single layered towel underneath and behind the 

car 

bed

.
