3. Push the latch plate into the

buckle until it clicks.

Make sure the release button is
positioned so you would be able
to unbuckle the safety belt
quickly if necessary.

4. Pull the shoulder belt all the way

out of the retractor to set the
lock. When the retractor lock is
set, the belt can be tightened but
not pulled out of the retractor.

5. If your child restraint has a top

tether, attach the top tether to
the top tether anchor. See Lower
Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on
page 3‑41
.

6. To tighten the belt, push down

on the child restraint, pull the
shoulder portion of the belt to
tighten the lap portion of the belt,
and feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor. When installing
a forward-facing child restraint, it
may be helpful to use your knee
to push down on the child
restraint as you tighten the belt.

Try to pull the belt out of the
retractor to make sure the
retractor is locked. If the
retractor is not locked, repeat
Steps 4 and 6.
