Installing A Child Restraint With A
Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor
(ALR)
1. Place the child seat in the center of the
seating position. For some second row
seats, you may need to recline the seat
and/or raise the head restraint to get a better
fit. If the rear seat can be moved forward and
rearward in the vehicle, you may wish to
move it to its rear-most position to make

room for the child seat. You may also move
the front seat forward to allow more room for
the child seat.
2. Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from
the retractor to pass it through the seat belt
path of the child restraint. Do not twist the
belt webbing in the seat belt path.
3. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you
hear a "click".
Always use the tether anchor when using the
seat belt to install a forward facing child re-
straint, up to the recommended weight limit of
the child restraint.
Contact between the front passenger seat and
the child restraint is allowed, if the child re-
straint manufacturer also allows contact.
The head restraints may be removed in every
rear seating position.
Do not twist the buckle stalk in a seating posi-
tion with an ALR retractor.
4. Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion
tight against the child seat.
5. To lock the seat belt, pull down on the
shoulder part of the seat belt until you have
pulled all the seat belt webbing out of the
retractor. Then, allow the webbing to retract
back into the retractor. As the webbing re-
tracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This
means the seat belt is now in the Automatic
Locking mode.
