VEHICLE SEAT BELTS (continued)

FLapBelts-ManuallyAdjustable

The locking latch plate on some seat belts may slip and loosen after being buckled on car seat if positioned at a certain angle. If this happens, flip latch plate over (fig. a) and re-buckle. Test installation again to see if this works. If not, move car seat to another seating position.

FLapBelts-WithRetractor

Lap belts with retractors may or may not hold a car seat securely.

Follow these steps to determine if you have a retractor system that will hold car seat securely:

a. Pull belt all the way out.

b. Allow belt to retract about 6 inches (15 cm). c. Pull out on belt again.

If belt is locked and you cannot pull the belt out any further, you have an Automatic Locking Retractor which may be used with a car seat. Remember, when installing a car seat, pull belt all the way out, buckle belt, and then tighten.

If you can pull the belt out again (Step c above), you have an Emergency Locking Retractor which MUST NOT be used with a car seat.
