Tightness
Grasp the child restraint
at the belt path

hand.
Push and pull the child
restraint from side to side,
forward and back. The
child restraint should not
move more than 2.5 cm
(1 in.) and the vehicle belt
should not loosen.
NOTE:
If it moves more
than 2.5 cm (1 in.) or if
the vehicle belt loosens,
try reinstalling the child
restraint or try another
seating location.

With knee still in child
restraint, push down on
the child restraint again
and pull on free end of the
tether strap to tighten.

Push down firmly while pulling up
on the vehicle shoulder belt or lap
belt to tighten.
With a switchable retractor, feed
the shoulder belt back into the
