ELR - Emergency Locking Retractor Belts Definition:These belts only lock in a sudden stop or crash. To see if you have this type of belt, pull on the lap belt, let it return part way, then pull on it again. If it moves freely, it is an ELR belt and the child restraint could work loose during normal driving. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual.

Some ELR belts will convert to Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) belts if you pull the belt all the way out. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual.

ELR shoulder belts either require a locking clip or cannot be used with any child restraint. Note: You may use an ELR lap and shoulder belt when using this seat as belt- positioning booster; no locking clip is required.

Check your vehicle owner’s manual to see which seating positions may be equipped with the LATCH system.

Vehicle Belts

If LATCH is not an option, you will use your vehicle’s belts. There are some vehicle belts that will not work with a child restraint or will require special attention. See next page for specific instructions.
