Fasten the vehicle seat belt as shown depending on
your type of seat belt.
Note: Install locking clip on lap and shoulder belt
combinations, if necessary.
If your vehicle is model year 1996 or newer, it likely
has a vehicle belt system that can be locked when
tightened, and will not require use of a Locking Clip.
Consult your vehicle owner’s manual before installing
a locking clip.
If your vehicle requires a Locking Clip, please call
ParentLink (see back cover) to obtain a Locking Clip and
instructions on how to install and use it.
Install Locking Clip,
if necessary.
If your vehicle was built prior
to model year 1996, and
has either a lap belt or lap/
shoulder belt that is equipped
with an emergency locking
retractor (ELR), you MUST
use a Locking Clip. Check
your vehicle owner’s manual
to identify which vehicle belt
system is in your vehicle.
