Securing
a
Child Restraint in
a
Rear
Seat Position
You’ll be using the lap-shoulder belt. See the earlier
part about the top strap
if
the child restraint has one. Be
sure
to
follow
the instructions that came with the child
restraint. Secure the child in the child restraint when and
as the instructions say.
1.
Put
the restraint
on
the seat.
2.
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.
3.
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.
