Dodge Charger: OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS / How To Stow An Unused Switchable-ALR (ALR) Seat Belt:
When using the LATCH attaching system to install a child restraint, stow all
ALR seat belts that are not being used by other occupants or being used to secure
child restraints. An unused belt could injure a child if they play with it and accidentally
lock the seat belt retractor.
Before installing a child restraint using the LATCH system, buckle the seat belt
behind the child restraint and out of the child’s reach. If the buckled seat belt
interferes with the child restraint installation, instead of buckling it behind
the child restraint, route the seat belt through the child restraint belt path and
then buckle it. Do not lock the seat belt. Remind all children in the vehicle that
the seat belts are not toys and that they should not play with them.
WARNING!
- Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages
can lead to failure of the restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed.
Follow the child restraint manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing
an infant or child restraint.
- Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly-fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they
to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.
If the selected seating position has a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor
(ALR) seat belt, stow the seat belt, following the instructions below.
Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the
child seat so that you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the
vehicle anchorages...
Child restraint systems are designed to be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts
or the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt.
WARNING!
Improper installation or failure to properly secure a child restraint can
lead to failure of the restraint...
