shoulder belt under child’s arm.

After inserting the tab, make sure
the tab and buckle are locked and

the buckle as this may prevent your
child from properly latching the tab
and buckle.

If the seat belt does not function

child from death or serious injury.

ately. Do not install the child re-
straint system on the seat until the
