Vehicle Safety Belts

Vehicle seats and safety belts differ from vehicle to vehicle.

Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for specific information about vehicle

safety belts and their use with child seats. Some vehicles have no seating

positions which are compatible with this child seat or any other child seat.

If in doubt, contact the vehicle manufacturer for assistance.

This child seat can fit securely in most vehicles using existing vehicle

belts. However, some vehicle designs prevent a secure fit of the

child seat.

The vehicle owner’s manual will have information on the types

of vehicle belts in your vehicle. If your belt type is listed below,

select another seating position or use Lower Anchors and Tethers

for CHildren (LATCH).
