Follow these steps to determine if you have a
retractor system that will hold child restraint
securely:
a. Pull belt all the way out
b. Allow belt to retract about 6 inches (15 cm)
c. If you hear clicking, slowly pull out on belt again,
if it locks, then you have a retractor that can be
switched to an Automatic Locking Retractor
Mode and can be used to secure your seat to
vehicle.
If you don’t have a retractor that can be switched to
an Automatic Locking Retractor Mode AND you pull
on the latch plate and it slides freely, a locking clip
MUST be used (see Pg. 49 “Locking Clip” section).
