Section 12 - Vehicle Seat Belts

Design and operation of vehicle seat belt systems vary from vehicle to vehicle and from seating location to seating location in the same vehicle. Not all vehicle seat belts can be used with a child restraint. Refer to the information in this section for information on the various types of vehicle seat belt systems.

WARNING

DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY can occur

Not all vehicle seat belts can be used with a car seat. The car seat must be held tightly at all times by a lap belt (or lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt) that will not loosen while driving.

To provide a secure installation of the car seat:

Read the vehicle owner’s manual regarding securing a car seat and vehicle seat belt use with car seat.

Follow all instruction labels on vehicle seat belt and car seat.

If car seat does not stay tightly secured after following instructions in this manual, vehicle seat belt labels, and vehicle owner’s manual:

Move car seat to another seating location and try again, or

Contact vehicle dealer for assistance and possible seat belt modification parts.

Obtain assistance, see “Need Help Installing Your Car Seat” in “Proper Use Checklist” section.
