5. To tighten the belt, push
down on the child restraint,
pull the shoulder portion of
the belt to tighten the lap
portion of the belt, and feed
the shoulder belt back into
the retractor. When
installing a forward-facing
child restraint, it may be
helpful to use your knee to
push down on the child
restraint as you tighten
the belt.
Try to pull the belt out of
the retractor to make sure
the retractor is locked. If the
retractor is not locked,
repeat Steps 4 and 5.
6. If the child restraint has a
top tether, follow the child
restraint manufacturer's
instructions regarding the
use of the top tether. See
Lower Anchors and Tethers
for Children (LATCH
System) 0 80.
7. Before placing a child in the
child restraint, make sure it
is securely held in place. To
check, grasp the child
restraint at the seat belt
path and attempt to move it
side to side and back and
forth. When the child
restraint is properly
installed, there should be no
more than 2.5 cm (1 in) of
movement.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle seat belt
and let it return to the stowed
position. If the top tether is
attached to a top tether
anchor, disconnect it.
