belt will click as it retracts to

indicate it is in the automatic

locking mode.
7. Pull the lap belt portion across

the child seat toward the buckle

and pull up on the shoulder belt

while pushing down with your knee

on the child seat.

8. Allow the safety belt to retract

to remove any slack in the belt.
9. Before placing the child in the

seat, forcibly tilt the seat forward

and back to make sure the seat is

securely held in place. To check

this, grab the seat at the belt path

and attempt to move it side to side

and forward and back. There should

be no more than one inch of

movement for proper installation.
10.Try to pull the belt out of the

retractor to make sure the retractor

is in automatic locking mode (you

should not be able to pull more belt

out). If the retractor is not locked,

unbuckle the belt and repeat steps

two through nine.
Check to make sure the child seat is

properly secured before each use.
