Combi 8040 - Manual (Page 51)

Pull out on latch plate. If belt slides freely through latch plate (fig. g), the locking
clip MUST be used (see “Locking Clip” section).
- For rear-facing, use the locking clip to secure the lap belt (see “Locking Clip”
section).
- For forward-facing, use the locking clip to secure the lap/shoulder belt.
Some combination lap/shoulder belts with free sliding latch plates may be
converted into an “automatic locking mode”. Always use the belt lock-off with
these belt systems.

Vehicle seat belts with locking latch plates (fig. h) normally hold a car seat
tightly. However in some cases, the locking latch plate on some seat belts
may slip and loosen after being buckled on car seat if positioned at a certain
angle. If this happens, flip the latch plate over and re-buckle. Test installation
again to see if this works. If not, move car seat to another seating location.
