2. Route the seat belt through the child

3. To activate the ALR child restraint instal-
lation function, slowly pull the shoulder
part of the belt all the way out of the
retractor until it stops. Then let the belt
feed back into the retractor.
4. After the belt has retracted, tug on it. If
the belt is in the ALR function, you will
not be able to pull it out. If the webbing
can be pulled out from retractor, the ALR
function has not been activated and you
will need to repeat steps 3 and 4.
5. After confirming that the belt is locked,
grab the shoulder part of the belt near the
buckle and pull up to remove any slack
from the lap part of the belt allowing the
slack to feed into the retractor. Remember,
if the lap belt portion is not tight, the child
restraint system will not be secure. It may
help to put your weight on the child
restraint system and/or push on its seat-
back while pulling up on the belt (see
illustration).
If your child restraint system requires the use
of a tether strap, fasten the tether strap in
accordance with the following procedures.
6. Open the cover from the tether anchor
installation point by pulling it back with
your hand as illustrated below (6).
7. Remove the head restraint from the loca-
tion in which you wish to install a child
restraint system.
