5.2.2 SAFE Vehicle Belt Systems
THE FOLLOWING BELT SYSTEMS CAN BE USED WITH YOUR INFANT RESTRAINT, IF the seat location meets all other requirements of these instructions and those in your vehicle owner's manual. LATCH can be used in place of the vehicle belt system. Please refer to vehicle owners manual for LATCH locations.
• Lap Belts - Manually Adjusted When buckled, the belt is tightened manually by pulling on the excess belt while pushing down hard on the infant restraint.
• Lap Belts with Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
The automatic locking retractor will not permit the lap belt to lengthen once it is buckled. Tighten the belt by feeding the belt back into the retractor while pushing down hard on the infant restraint.
• Combination Lap/Shoulder Belt with Locking Latch Plate Once it is buckled, this type of belt has a latchplate that will not allow the lap portion of the belt to loosen. Belt is tightened by pulling hard on the shoulder portion of the vehicle belt while pushing down hard on the infant restraint.
