Setting seatbelt to only retract

By setting the seatbelt to only retract, you can tighten the belt without it loosening when you let go. This allows you to install certain child restraints in your car that use the seatbelt to secure them.

When set to only retract, the seatbelt's locking mechanism will engage continuously. This allows you to tighten the belt manually to secure a seatbelt-installed child restraint.

All seatbelts in your car, except for the driver's seatbelt, can be set to only retract.

Pull the seatbelt out fully.
When the full length is unfurled, the belt switches to only being able to retract.

Allow the seatbelt to retract fully to return the seatbelt's function to normal.

 Important

Seatbelts can only be used to install child restraints specifically designed for seatbelt installation. Always follow the instructions that come with the child restraint.
