Vehicle Compatibility

NOTE: The information in this section only applies to installation with vehicle safety belts.

IMPORTANT: Vehicle seats and safety belts differ from vehicle to vehicle. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for specific information about vehicle safety belts and their use with child seats. Some vehicles have no seating positions which are compatible with this child seat or any other child seat. If in doubt, contact the vehicle manufacturer for assistance.

This child seat can fit securely in most vehicles using existing vehicle belts. However, some vehicle designs prevent a secure fit of the child seat.

The vehicle owner’s manual will have information on the types of vehicle belts in your vehicle. If your belt type is listed below, select another seating position or use the Lower Universal Anchorage System (LUAS).

WARNING! The following types of vehicle belts are not compatible with this child seat :

•Front vehicle belts with top or bottom anchorage points in the door. (Fig. A & B)

•Motor-driven, automatic vehicle belts. (Fig. B)

•Lap-shoulder belts that have separate retractors for shoulder section and lap section in which lap section retractor does not lock.

•Non-locking, two-point Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) vehicle belts.

•Lap-shoulder ELR vehicle belts without use of the lock-off.

NOTE: Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual to determine the kind of retractors used in your vehicle and how to operate them.
