HOW TO INSTALL USING SEATBELT

INSTALLING INTO THE CAR USING SEATBELT AND TOP TETHER

A. Fully lengthen seatbelt. Thread the seatbelt into forward facing seatbelt path (yellow marker) as shown
below, ensuring that the seatbelt is behind the harness straps and that the lap part of the seatbelt is
below the hook as shown below, on each side.
NOTE: Seatbelt extenders should not be used if the seatbelt is not long enough to secure the child
restraint. If they are used then the buckle must not enter the yellow belt path zone.
B. Engage seatbelt buckle and tongue. Firmly push down on the restraint to compress it into the vehicle
seat. Whilst pulling the sash belt with the other hand to tighten the lap portion of the vehicle seatbelt.
Feed the sash portion into the lock-off and whilst holding the belt tension, press the lock-off lever to
clamp the sash belt. For inertia/retractable seatbelts, allow excess belt to feed back into retractor.
Ensure all seatbelt slack is removed before applying the lock-off.
C. If using a lap belt only, thread the seatbelt through the back of the seat following the belt path. Keep
the belt under the hook on each side. Engage the buckle and tighten the seatbelt while firmly pushing
down on the restraint to compress it into the vehicle seat. With a lap belt only installation the lock-off is
not used.
D. Follow top tether installation instructions on page 66.
