vehicle belt retractors that will work with this

car seat.
Lockoff
When used correctly,
this base's Lockoff will
lock the vehicle belt.
Check Retractor
Retractors pull seat belts
into stored positions and
lock the belt to hold
passengers in place.
Types of Retractors
Switchable Retractor
(most vehicles have this type)
This retractor can be switched to a locking mode.
You must have the retractor in the locking mode to
use the seat belt with this car seat.
Switching to locking mode: Slowly pull the shoulder belt
all the way out, then let it go back in 1-2 in. (2.5-5 cm).
As it goes back in, you will most likely hear a ratcheting
sound.
Gently pull the belt to see if it has locked. You will not be
able to pull any more belt out if the lock has engaged.
Automatic Locking Retractor
This retractor always locks.
It will automatically lock after slowly pulling the seat belt
out at least halfway and letting the belt go back into the
retractor 1-2 in. (2.5-5 cm).
