Check that the entire lap/shoulder belt (both
the lap and shoulder portions of the belt) is
under all four Belt Tabs as shown in Figure

NOTE: If your vehicle’s belt system is
equipped with an ELR/ALR Switchable
Retractor (SLR), it is also recommended to
engage the ALR by slowly pulling the vehicle
belt all the way out until it stops. Then, feed
the belt back into the retractor.
Option 2 — If installing with lap/shoulder
belt WITHOUT using a Rear-Facing Lock-off:

• Engage the vehicle’s ALR by slowly
pulling the vehicle belt all the way out
until it stops. Then, feed the belt back
into the retractor.
• Press down in center of car seat to
depress the vehicle cushion and pull free
the shoulder portion of lap/shoulder
belt to tighten as shown in Figure 32,
feeding any remaining belt webbing
back into the retractor.
Check that the entire lap/shoulder belt is
under all four Belt Tabs and over both Rear-
Facing Lock-offs as shown in Figure 35.

seat at top of armrests, pull car seat front
to back and left to right to check for secure
installation as shown in Figure 38. Vehicle
belt MUST stay tight and child restraint

• If vehicle belt does not stay tight, try
installing the car seat using Rear-Facing
Belt Lock-off. Go back to Step 6.
• If vehicle belt still does not stay tight or
car seat cannot be securely installed, try
a different vehicle seat location or install
using LATCH, see “Installing/Removing
Car Seat Rear-Facing With LATCH” on
