To install a car seat using the seat belt:
Read all of the car seat manufacturer’s instructions and
precautions rst, and
follow them all throughout this
process.
Place the car seat in one of the three rear seating
positions in your Grenadier.
Make sure that it is centered left-to-right in that seating
position, that
it is straight (not at an angle), that it is on
the seat bottom (rather than a towel, pad, etc.), and that
the car seat is pushed as far rearward toward the seat
back as possible.
If the car seat has an Upper Tether on its upper back, ip
that over to the front so you can get to it later.
Thread the seat belt through the car seat according to
the car
seat manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring the
belt is straight without any twists.
Buckle the seat belt, listening for a click to conrm it's
secure. Conrm
that it is latched by trying to pull the
latch out with the belt.
Fully extend the upper (shoulder) webbing out all the
way, smoothly
and steadily, to set the pre-lock ALR
function.
Let the seat belt retract. As it does, you should hear
clicks, indicating the pre-lock ALR function is set.
Press the car seat rmly downward
and toward the rear
while letting the upper (shoulder) webbing retract and
lock.
Make sure the seat belt is locked by trying to pull the
webbing out
of the retractor. If it extends, unbuckle it,
and repeat the above steps.
For forward-facing car seats, the Upper Tether is also
required (see
Securing a Car Seat Upper Tether to your
Grenadier).
WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions and
precautions may result in serious injury and death.
Securing a Car Seat Upper Tether to your Grenadier
Always
use
one of the two methods described in the previous two
sections to secure a car seat; an Upper Tether alone is not safe!
For Forward-Facing Car Seats, the Upper Tether provides
additional stability and limits the forward movement of the car
seat during a crash, helping to reduce the risk of head and neck
injuries.
If the car seat is forward-facing and has an Upper Tether, secure it
to the Grenadier's Upper Tether anchor. All three rear seating
locations are equipped with car seat Upper Tether anchorages. To
