2. Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to
pass it through the belt path of the child restraint. Do not
twist the belt webbing in the belt path.
3. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a
“click.
”
4. Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight against
the ch
ild seat.
5. To lock the seat belt, pull down on the shoulder part of
the be
lt until you have pulled all the seat belt webbing out
of the retractor. Then, allow the webbing to retract back
into the retractor. As the webbing retracts, you will hear
a clicking sound. This means the seat belt is now in the
Automatic Locking mode.
6. Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor. If it is locked,
you sho
uld not be able to pull out any webbing. If the
retractor is
not
locked, repeat step 5.
7. Finally, pull up on any excess webbing to tighten the lap
portion around the child restraint while you push the
child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle
seat.
8. If the child restraint has a top tether strap and the seating
positi
on has a top tether anchorage, connect the tether
strap to the anchorage and tighten the tether strap. See the
section “Installing Child Restraints Using the Top Tether
Anchorage” for directions to attach a tether anchor.
9. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling
back an
d forth on the child seat at the belt path. It should
not move more than 1
inch (25.4 mm) in any direction.
Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt
occasio
nally, and pull it tight if necessary.
