Locking Clip

1
Proper use of a locking clip maintains a tight, secure
installation by preventing the seat belt from becoming
loose over time.
WARNING:
• Failure to properly lock the seat belt will result in an
unsafe installation that will greatly increase the poten-
tial for injury or death to the child in an accident.
• If your vehicle lap shoulder seat belt is equipped with ELR
(Emergency Locking Retractor) that does not switch to
function as ALR (Automatic Locking Retractor), you
MUST use a locking clip to secure lap portion of vehicle
seat belt.
If you have any questions about the specific type of seat belt
system in your vehicle and its operation, consult vehicle
owner’s manual or contact vehicle manufacturer.
1. Remove locking clip from storage
location on restraint back.
2. Begin restraint installation as per
instructions
(see pages 16 and 22
for lap-shoulder belt installation
instructions)
.
3. After seat belt is tightened, hold
the lap and shoulder portions
together with one hand. (Fig. 1)
This determines the correct seat
belt length to ‘lock’.
Using your other hand, release
the seat belt buckle.
4. While still holding the lap and
shoulder belts together, attach
locking clip to the lap and
shoulder belts. (Fig. 2)
5. Re-insert seat belt buckle tongue
into buckle. (Fig. 3)
