Your vehicle’s features may be considerably different
than those pictured here.
If UAS anchors are not an option or if your child weighs more
than 18 kg (40 lb), you must use the vehicle seat belt system
to install the child restraint.
Not all vehicle belts and seating positions will work with
child restraints.
Please go through the following steps to understand how
to lock a child restraint in
Rear-Facing
or
Forward-Facing
mode with a vehicle belt.
Lap/Shoulder Belts
You MUST Review Your
Vehicle Owner’s Manual
Your vehicle owner’s manual will let
you know which vehicle belts and
seating positions child restraints
can be installed in.
1
Determine How the Child
Restraint Will Be Locked
Into Place
The vehicle belt
must not
loosen after
tightening. This means there needs to
be a way to lock the vehicle belt.
The ways this can be done are:
• By using the seat belt’s retractor (see step 3);
OR
• By using the seat belt’s latch plate (see step 4).

Check the Retractor
Retractors pull seat belts into stored
positions and lock the belt to hold
passengers in place.
See the next page for some common
types of vehicle belt retractors that will
work with this child restraint.
