Vehicle Safety Belts
IMPORTANT:
•
The information in this section only applies to installation with vehicle
safety belts.
•
Some vehicles do not have seating positions which are compatible with
this child restraint. If in doubt, contact the vehicle manufacturer.
This child restraint can fit securely in most vehicles using the existing vehicle
belts. However, some vehicle designs prevent a secure fit of the child restraint
due to the position of the vehicle belt lower anchorage points.
The owner's manual for your vehicle will
have information on the types of vehicle
belts in your vehicle. If your belt type is
listed below, select another seating position
or use ISOFIX connectors.
The following types of vehicle belts are not
compatible with this child restraint:
Front vehicle belts with top or bottom
anchorage points in the door.
Motor driven automatic vehicle belts.
Three-point belts that have separate
retractors for the shoulder section and
the lap section.
2-point Emergency Locking Retractor
(ELR) vehicle belts without the use of a
belt shortening clip.
