and a
free sliding buckle tongue, and emergency locking
retractors (ELR) you must install with the locking clip.

must be as tight as possible. Put your full
weight into the seat as you tighten the seat belt.
If you can move the child restraint more than 1 in. (25 mm)
forward or side-to-side at the belt path, the seat belt is not
tight enough, and you need to try again.
