Installing the Car Seat without the Base
Thread the lap belt through the slots
on the handle and lock the latch
plate into the buckle as shown (c).
Pull the shoulder portion of the belt
around the back of the seat (d).
Thread the shoulder belt into the slot in
the back of the seat and pull it to tighten
the restraint againts the vehicle seat (e).
Once the seat is tight, check that the red
line on the side of the car seat is level with
the ground (page 39).
Important! If the vehicle belt is not long
enough, the restraint can be installed
treading only the lap portion of the belt in the
handle slots as show in the picture (f). If the
vehicle belt is not equipped with a locking
device, use of a locking clip is required (refer
to page 42 for additional details).
Warning! If you cannot get the belt tight
enough, refer to your vehicle manual for
instructions on how to secure the seat using
the type of seat belt in your vehicle. Your
baby is not safe riding in a loose car seat.
