8-D Vehicle Seat Belts
Review your vehicle owner's manual for vehicle seat belt use
This car seat can be installed using a vehicle seat belt. To do this, you will need to change
the seat belt to a locked mode for use with car seats. With some vehicle seat belts, this is
done with the latchplate; with other vehicle seat belts, this is done with the retractor.
