Lap Belts (Manually Adjusted)
A lap belt that is manually adjusted and will
remain tightly adjusted around the Car Seat
while the vehicle is in motion is suitable
for use with the Car Seat. Pulling the belt
through the buckle after the buckle is fastened
tightens this type of seat belt. (Fig 29-1)
Lap Belts with Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR)
A lap belt that cannot be lengthened once
it is fastened is suitable for use with the
Car Seat. These seat belts often have an
automatic locking retractor (ALR) that
will allow the belt to be lengthened but
once fastened, must be unbuckled and
allowed to retract fully before allowing the
belt to be lengthened again. (Fig 29-2)
Combination Lap/Shoulder Belt with
Locking Latch Plate
A lap/shoulder combination seat belt with
a latch plate that locks the lap belt into
position is suitable for use with the Car
Seat. (Fig 29-3) Once this type of seat belt

is fastened, the latch plate prevents the
lap belt from loosening. This combination
seat belt does not require a Locking Clip.
Note: The belt is tightened by pulling
hard on the shoulder belt while pushing
down hard on the Car Seat.
Combination Lap/Shoulder Belt with Sliding
Latch Plate
A combination lap/shoulder belt with a
latch plate that can slide freely along the
belt, (Fig 30-1), is suitable for use with this
car seat when the belt is locked to prevent
movement of the car seat. If the vehicle
belt includes a lockable retractor, the
retractor MUST be locked or a locking clip
MUST be used. If the vehicle belt does not
include a lockable retractor then a locking
clip, (Fig 30-2), MUST always be used.
Please refer to the vehicle owner’s manual
to determine if your vehicle lap/shoulder belt
includes a lockable retractor and how to lock it.
