Car Seat With Head Restraint Folded

Installing A Child Restraint With A 

Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor 

(ALR): 

Child restraint systems are designed to be secured 

in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion 

of a lap/shoulder belt.

1. Place the child seat in the center of the 

seating position. If the second row seat can 

be reclined, you may recline the seat and/or 

raise the head restraint (if adjustable) to get a 

better fit. If the rear seat can be moved 

forward and rearward in the vehicle, you may 

wish to move it to its rear-most position to 

make room for the child seat. You may also 

move the front seat forward to allow more 

room for the child seat.

2. Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the 

retractor to pass it through the belt path of the 

child restraint. Do not twist the belt webbing in 

the belt path.

3. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you 

hear a “click.”

4. Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion 

tight against the child seat.

5. To lock the seat belt, pull down on the shoulder 

part of the belt until you have pulled all the 

seat belt webbing out of the retractor. Then, 

allow the webbing to retract back into the 

retractor. As the webbing retracts, you will hear 

a clicking sound. This means the seat belt is 

now in the Automatic Locking mode.

6. Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor. If it 

is locked, you should not be able to pull out any 

webbing. If the retractor is not locked, repeat 

step 5.

7. Finally, pull up on any excess webbing to 

tighten the lap portion around the child 

restraint while you push the child restraint 

rearward and downward into the vehicle seat.

WARNING!

Improper installation or failure to properly 

secure a child restraint can lead to failure of 

the restraint. The child could be badly injured 

or killed.

Follow the child restraint manufacturer’s 

directions exactly when installing an infant or 

child restraint.
