Lap Belts - Manually Adjustable

Manually adjustable lap belts (fig. c) normally will hold a car seat tightly. However, in some cases, the locking latch plate on some seat belts may slip and loosen if positioned at a certain angle. If this happens, flip latch plate over (fig. c) and re-buckle. Test installation again to see if lap belt stays tight. If not, move car seat to another seating location.
