type of seat belts your vehicle has.
• Lap Belts-Manually Adjusted: When buckled, the belt is tightened manually by pulling on the excess belt while pushing down hard on the
car seat base.
• Lap Belts with Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR): The automatic locking retractor will not allow the lap belt to lengthen once it is buckled.
Tighten the belt by feeding the belt back into the retractor while pushing down hard on the car seat base.
• Combination Lap/Shoulder Belt with Locking Latch Plate: Once it is buckled, this type of belt has a latch plate that will not allow the lap
portion of the belt to loosen. Belt is tightened by pulling hard on the shoulder portion of the vehicle belt while pushing down hard on the car
seat base.
• Combination Lap/Shoulder Belt with Sliding Latch Plate: This type of belt has a latch plate that slides freely along the belt. To prevent
movement of the lap portion of this type belt, the belt MUST be converted through the use of a Locking Clip, unless your vehicle belt can
be converted in another way as described in your vehicle owner's manual.
