Child Restraint: Service and Repair

The locking clip must be used to secure a child seat when your vehicle has a shoulder and lap belt with a sliding tongue. The locking clip is not needed if the seat belt has only a lap belt. If you do not use a locking clip, injuries could result from the child seat tipping over during normal braking or cornering.
1. Thread the belt webbing through the child seat according to the child seat manufacturer's instructions.
2. Buckle seat belt.
3. Pull on shoulder portion of the belt to make the lap portion fit snugly. While keeping the lap belt portion snug, unbuckle the seat belt.
4. Slide any corner of locking clip slot over both layers of webbing as shown in Illustration 'A'.
5. Pinch opposite side of webbing together and insert into locking clip slot as shown in Illustration 'B'.
6. Pinch both layers of webbing together and insert into other slot of locking clip as shown in Illustration 'C'.
7. Re-buckle belt. To tighten lap portion, grasp locking clip and pull shoulder portion of the belt as shown in Illustration 'D'.
