anytime a child safety seat is installed in a seating
position that has a belt with this feature. Children

restrained in the rear seat.

How To Engage The Automatic Locking Mode

3. Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will

to retract completely to disengage the Automatic Locking
Mode and activate the vehicle sensitive (emergency)
