There are three types of retractors:
ELR (Emergency Locking
Retractor), ALR (Automatic Locking Retractor),
and
Switchable (ELR switch to ALR).
To determine your type of
retractor, follow these steps:
1.
Slowly
pull the belt out about halfway and
stop.
2. Let the belt retract back several inches.
3. Try to
slowly
pull the belt out more.
If the belt cannot be pulled any further,
it is
ALR
, ready to install your car seat. If it
can be pulled further, go to the next step.
4.
Slowly
pull the belt
all the way out
, and
then allow it to retract several inches. You may hear some
clicking sounds.
5. Try to pull the belt all the way out again. If it cannot be
pulled out, it is
Switchable
, ready to install your car seat. If
it can still be pulled out freely, it is
ELR
. Review the following
pages to properly install your infant car seat.
Note:
Most vehicles manufactured after 1996 will have
Switchable retractors in the back seat. If you have any questions
about your retractor type, consult your vehicle owner’s manual
or call Graco for assistance.
