Acceptable Vehicle Seat Belt Systems
THE FOLLOWING VEHICLE SEAT BELT SYSTEMS CAN BE USED WITH THIS
CHILD RESTRAINT IF the seat location meets all other requirements of
these instructions and those in the vehicle owner’s manual. If available, the
LATCH attachments on this child restraint and the LATCH anchor points in
the vehicle may be an option to use in place of the vehicle seat belt system
when using the harness mode. Refer to the vehicle owner’s manual for
LATCH locations and page 15-16 of this manual for more information.
•
Manually-adjusted lap belt
This type of lap belt is tightened by
pulling on the excess belt once it is
buckled. When adjusted properly,
this belt system should hold the child
restraint securely in place. Always check
to make sure the seat belt is holding the child restraint securely.
NEVER use a lap belt only when using the child restraint in a belt
positioning booster mode.
•
Lap belt with automatic locking retractor (ALR)
This belt system’s retractor locks
automatically and does not allow the
lap belt to lengthen once it is buckled.
When used properly, this belt system
should hold the child restraint securely
in place. The belt may need to be fed back into the retractor to remove
the slack. Always check to make sure the seat belt is holding the child
restraint securely.
NEVER use a lap belt only when using the child restraint in a belt
positioning booster mode.
• Lap belts forward of the seat bight (seat crease)
Some vehicle seat belt systems’ lap belts are
anchored forward of the seat bight and come up
through the vehicle seat’s bottom cushion. This
vehicle seat belt may NOT safely hold a child
restraint in place. DO NOT USE this type of belt
system unless it holds the child restraint securely
and the lap belt portion stays locked at all times.
NEVER use a lap belt only when using the child
restraint in a belt positioning booster mode.
• Belt systems attached to the vehicle
door or on a motorized track.
DO NOT USE vehicle seat belts that are attached
to the door in any way or that move along a
track to automatically surround the passenger
when the door is closed. These vehicle seat belts
WILL NOT safely hold a child restraint in place.
• Combination lap-shoulder belt with
two retractors
This type of belt system has a retractor for the
shoulder portion and another retractor for the
lap portion of the belt system. Both belt portions
are sewn to the latch plate. This vehicle seat belt
may NOT safely hold a child restraint in place.
DO NOT USE this type of belt system with the
harness unless the vehicle owner’s manual or
label states the lap belt portion can be locked at all times.
NOTE:
This belt system may be used when using the child restraint as a
belt positioning booster.
