Check Latch Plates
Latch plates are the part of
the seat belt that goes into the
buckle.
To see if the latch plate locks:
1. Buckle Vehicle Belt
2. Firmly Tug Lap Portion of Seat Belt
While Pulling It Up
If the vehicle belt does not slide
through the latch plate, it's locked.
If the latch plate slides up and down
the vehicle belt, it is a sliding latch
plate.
Locking Latch Plate
Sliding latch plates easily slip
between the lap and shoulder
portions of the belt.
If you have an Emergency Locking
Retractor with a Sliding Latch
Plate, you must use a locking clip.
Please contact us for one,
see page 61.

Tether Use
For

Your vehicle's features may be considerably different
than those pictured here.
You must always attach, adjust, and secure the tether (top
anchorage) strap when installing the car seat in the
Mode
with internal harness. Tethers improve the installation and
stability of car seats and reduce the risk of injury.
Attach the tether hook to the tether anchor designated by your vehicle
manufacturer for that seating position. Check your vehicle owner's
manual for more information.
If the seating position does not have a tether anchor, use a different
seating position or see your dealer or a qualified mechanic and have
one installed.
Using this child restraint without the tether strap
anchored as required by the manufacturer would be a
misuse of the child restraint and, in a sudden stop or crash,
could result in serious injury or death.
Do not fasten multiple tether hooks on the same tether
anchor in the vehicle.
