Installation: Lap Belt (ALR)
When installing the child restraint into a vehicle using only a lap belt,
YOU
MUST USE A TOP TETHER STRAP
(see pg. 15)
anchored to one of the
anchor points in your vehicle.
Make sure to check the Vehicle Seat Belt
Compatibility (pg. 10) before installing the child restraint.
1. Lift the cover from the child restraint to reveal the
tether slots. Insert each of the metal bracket ends
of the tether strap into the right and left tether slots
(insert from front to back). You will have to turn the
bracket horizontally
(as shown on right)
then insert
the bracket completely into the slot. The tether
strap will wrap over the top of the child restraint
frame and down the back. Reposition cover.
2. Place the child restraint in a forward-facing position on the vehicle seat.
Note:
If more than 3 inches of the child restraint base extends beyond
the front edge of the vehicle seat (not including use of the recline bar),
then the vehicle seat is too shallow to properly support the child re-
straint.
If this is the case, DO NOT INSTALL.
3. Pull the lap belt out completely.
Then,
1)
insert the latch plate (the
“male” part of the seat belt
buckle) into the outer lower
side vehicle belt slot and
route the belt around the
back of the child restraint
2)
pull the seat belt out
through the other lower
side vehicle belt slot
3)
insert the latch plate (the
“male” part of the seat belt
buckle) into the vehicle’s
seat belt buckle
(see right)
4. Place one knee in the child re-
straint and push down firmly
while pulling on the lap belt to
tighten and removing all slack.
Make sure that the child restraint is flat against the vehicle seat back
and bottom. Continue to tether installation (pg. 15).
5. The tightness of the installation should ensure that there is no more
than 1-inch of movement of the child restraint. If there is more than 1-
inch of movement, then the installation is incorrect and must be redone.
