4. Buckle the seat belt being careful that the
seat belt is not twisted and is securely
latched into the appropriate buckle, and
not the adjacent buckle. (Fig. 40-2)
5. Proper installation of the Infant Seat or
Base requires that the seat belt be very
tight. To tighten the seat belt, push down
hard with your knee or hand on the Infant
Seat or Base while pulling and tightening
the seat belt. Check that there is no
slack in the seat belt on either side of the
Infant Seat or Base, or anywhere along
the path of the belt, and that the seat belt
is tight from end to end.

6. To tighten a lap belt only:
• An automatically retracted lap seat belt
is tightened by feeding belt back into its
retractor while pushing down hard on the
Infant Seat or Base. Make sure that the
retractor locks the lap belt into place and
that the belt remains very tight. (Fig. 41-1)
• A manually adjusted lap seat belt is
tightened by pulling on the free end
of the seat belt while pushing down
hard on the Infant Seat or Base. If you
experience difficulty tightening the seat
belt, unbuckle the seat belt, tighten the
seat belt a small amount and re-buckle
the seat belt. Repeat this procedure
until the seat belt is very tight around the
Infant Seat or base. Check that the seat
belt remains very tight around the Infant
Seat or base. (Fig. 41-2)
7. To tighten a combination lap/shoulder seat belt:
• A lap/shoulder combination belt with a locking buckle is tightened
by pulling upward on the shoulder portion of the seat belt while
pushing down hard on the Infant Seat or Base. If you experience
difficulty tightening the seat belt, unbuckle the seat belt, tighten
the seat belt a small amount and re-buckle the seat belt. Repeat
this procedure until the seat belt is very tight around the Infant
Seat. (Fig. 42-1)
