Securing a Child Restraint in a Rear
Outside Seat Position
You’ll be using the lap-shoulder belt. See the earlier part
about the top strap
if
the child restraint has one.
1.
Put the restraint on the seat. Follow the instructions
for the child restraint.
2.
Secure the child in the child restraint as the
instructions say.
3.
Pick up the latch plate, and
run
the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle’s safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
4.
Tilt the latch plate to adjust the belt if needed.
If
the shoulder belt goes
in
front
of
the child’s face
or
neck, put it behind the child restraint.
