Securing
a
Child Restraint in
a
Rear
Outside Position
You’ll be using the lap-shoulder belt.
See
the earlier section 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.
Pull out the vehicle’s safety belt and
run the lap part through or around
the restraint. The child restraint
instructions will show you how. Tilt
the latch plate to adjust the belt
if
needed.
See if the shoulder belt would go in
front of the child’s face or neck. If
so,
put it behind the child restraint.
4.
Buckle the belt. Make sure the
release button faces upward or
outward,
so
you’ll be able to
un-
buckle it quickly if you ever need to.
