How to tell if the child restraint is properly installed
The child restraint is flush with both the seat cushion and the seat backrest, unless a small gap
between the child restraint and the seat backrest is allowed by the child restraint manufacturer.
The child restraint does not hang over the edge of the vehicle seat by more than the generally ac‐
cepted 20% of the child restraint. Always follow the overhang limits.
The child restraint is centered in the seating position and is not installed at an angle.
The child restraint does not move forward or sideways by more than about 1 inch (2.5 cm).
The child restraint does not contact or push against any of the safety belt buckles, because this
can cause damage to the buckles and make the buckles unusable or unsafe.
The child restraints do not interfere with each other and each stays fully functional and accessible
to properly restrain and protect each child.
The child restraint is installed with LATCH/UAS or the vehicle safety belt according to the weight
limits stated on the child restraint and the child restraint’s top tether is used as instructed by the
child restraint manufacturer.
