Forward-facing
Belt Path
4. Check your work.
With your hand holding the seat shell at the forward-
facing belt path, as shown, try to move the child
restraint from side to side. Then, holding the seat
shell at each forward-facing belt path, try to move
the restraint from front to back.
If you can move the child restraint more than 25
mm (1 inch) from side to side or front to back
at
the belt path
, the aircraft seat belt is not tight
enough, and you
MUST
install again until the air-
craft seat belt is tight.
