How to Lock Your Lap/Shoulder Vehicle Seat Belt
Sliding Latch Plate
and Switchable
Retractor
A latch plate that slides
freely on the belt webbing
and cannot, by itself, hold
the belt snug around a car
seat.
When installing the car
seat, route the vehicle seat
belt through the proper
belt path and buckle it in.
Slowly pull the shoulder
belt all the way out
to switch it to locking
mode. Then, as you pull
the vehicle seat belt tight,
feed all the slack back into
the retractor.
Grab the sides of the base
or seat at the belt path and
slide side to side and front
to back. The base or seat
should not move more
than 1” (2.5 cm).
Note: With the vehicle seat belt in
this locking mode, all the tension
is upwards in the shoulder belt.
This may start to tilt your car seat
sideways when rear-facing. If this
happens, use a locking clip instead of
switching the retractor. See Sliding
Latch Plate and ELR Retractor.
Note: When using the base, you do
not need to switch the retractor. The
lock-off locks the seat belt.
