Installing Child Restraints Using The Ve-
hicle Seat Belt
Child restraint systems are designed to be se-
cured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt
portion of a lap/shoulder belt.
WARNING!
• Improper installation or failure to properly
secure a child restraint can lead to failure
of the restraint. The child could be badly
injured or killed.
• Follow the child restraint manufacturer's
directions exactly when installing an infant
or child restraint.

The seat belts in the passenger seating posi-
tions are equipped with a Switchable Automatic
Locking Retractor (ALR) that is designed to
keep the lap portion of the seat belt tight around
the child restraint so that it is not necessary to
use a locking clip. The ALR retractor can be
"switched" into a locked mode by pulling all of
the webbing out of the retractor and then letting
the webbing retract back into the retractor. If it
is locked, the ALR will make a clicking noise
while the webbing is pulled back into the retrac-
tor. Refer to the "Automatic Locking Mode"
description in "Switchable Automatic Locking
Retractors (ALR)" under "Occupant Restraint
Systems" for additional information on ALR.
Please see the table below and the following
sections for more information.
