Switchable Retractor
(most vehicles have this type)
This retractor can be switched to a locking mode.
You must have the retractor in the locking mode to use
the seat belt with this car seat.
Switching to locking mode: Slowly pull the shoulder belt
all the way out, then let it go back in 1-2 in. (2.5-5 cm).
As it goes back in, you will most likely hear a ratcheting
sound.
Gently pull the belt to see if it has locked. You will not be
able to pull any more belt out if the lock has engaged.
