Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
To operate the switchable retractor, pull the belt from the
retractor until there is enough to allow you to pass
through the child restraint and slide the latch plate into
the buckle. Then pull on the belt until it is completely
extended from the retractor. Allow the belt to return into
the retractor, pulling on the excess webbing to tighten the
lap portion about the child restraint. Follow the instruc-

NOTE: To reset this feature, you must let all of the belt
webbing return into the retractor. You will not be able to
pull out more webbing until all of the webbing has been
returned back into the retractor.
