1-24 Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
Rear-facing — step 3
3. For child restraints that are equipped with
webbing-mounted attachments, remove any
additional slack from the anchor attach-
ments. Press downward and rearward firmly
in the center of the child restraint with your
hand to compress the vehicle seat cushion
and seatback while tightening the webbing
of the anchor attachments.
Rear-facing — step 4
4. After attaching the child restraint, test it
before you place the child in it. Push it from
side to side while holding the seat near the
LATCH attachment path. The child restraint
should not move more than 1 inch (25 mm)
from side to side. Try to tug it forward and
check to see if the LATCH attachment holds
the restraint in place. If the restraint is not
secure, tighten the LATCH attachment as
necessary, or put the restraint on another
seat and test it again. You may need to try a
different child restraint. Not all child re-
straints fit in all types of vehicles.
5. Check to make sure that the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use. If the
child restraint is loose, repeat steps 2
through 4.
