6. Ensure child restraint is secure.
Reconnect the seat pad to the front of the restraint.
With your hand holding the seat shell at the rear-
facing belt path, as shown, try to move the child re-
straint from side to side. Then, holding the seat shell
at each rear-facing belt path, try to move the restraint
from front to back.
For the child restraint to be properly secured, it
MUST NOT move more than 25 mm (1 inch) from
side to side or front to back at the belt path. If
you cannot tightly secure the child restraint, try
again or move it to another location.
