4.0 Selecting a Vehicle Seating Location
Passive Restraint – Lap or Shoulder
Belt Mounted on Door DO NOT use a
seat belt that is connected to the door in
any way. These types of seat belts are
designed to automatically surround the
occupant when the door is closed. This
type of seat belt will NOT adequately
restrain the car seat (Fig. 17a).
Passive Restraint – Lap Belt with
Motorized Shoulder Belt DO NOT
use a shoulder belt that moves along a
track. These systems typically move to
surround the occupant when the door is
closed. This type of belt system will
NOT adequately restrain the car seat
(Fig. 17b).
Lap Belts Forward of Seat Crease DO
NOT use a seat belt that is anchored
on the seat more than 2 inches forward
of the crease between the seat bottom
and the seatback. This type of seat belt
anchors the car seat too far forward and
the car seat will not be safely restrained
in the vehicle (Fig. 17c).

4.6 Preparation for Installation in Vehicle

When available, LATCH is the recommended method of securing the
car seat in the vehicle.
WARNING!
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY can occur:
• FAILURE TO PROPERLY SECURE THE CAR SEAT IN YOUR
VEHICLE INCREASES THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH IN THE EVENT OF A SUDDEN STOP, SHARP TURN
OR CRASH.
• National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) alerts
vehicle owners that, according to accident statistics, children
under age 13 are safer when properly restrained in the rear
seating positions rather than in front seating positions.
• Use car seats in a vehicle's rear seat location
whenever possible.
1. Park your vehicle on a level surface so that the Seat Angle Indicator
located on the left side of the car seat will properly indicate the proper
angle of recline of the seat.
2. Make sure you have selected an acceptable location for the car seat
as instructed in Section 4.0 Selecting A Vehicle Seat Location.
