6.2.2 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
owner’s manual for LATCH locations.
When using infant restraint without the base, adjust the belt as
described in this section for these types of vehicle seat belts.
When using the base to install the infant restraint, you must ALWAYS
use the Lock-off to secure the lap belt or lap/shoulder belt. See
“7.2
Installing the Infant Restraint and Base Using Vehicle Belt”
, page. 34
for installation instructions when using the base.
Some vehicle lap/shoulder seat belts have a plastic button on the belt.
Do not allow the button to interfere with the belt routing through the
vehicle belt path when installing the seat alone, or with the lock-off
when installing the seat and the base.
• 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.
