Installing the Base with the Vehicle Seat
Route the lap belt through the belt path
openings on both sides of base and under
the Fit-loc belt tightener. Make sure not
to twist the belt and make sure it lies flat.
Fasten the buckle until it clicks into place.
Pull the free end of the lap belt to
remove all the slack and to get the base
snug against the vehicle seat. Lay the free
end of the belt across the belt path so it
will be under the Fit-loc belt tightener
after it has been closed.
Close the Fit-loc belt tightener by pushing
down with your two thumbs next to the
indicator window. Keep pushing down
until it locks into place and you see GREEN
in the indicator window on the base.
CHECK to make sure base is secure by
holding both sides of the base near the
vehicle belt and moving it from side to side
and front and back. The lap belt should not
loosen and the base should not move easily.
The base should not move more than 2.5 cm
(1 in.) from side to side or front to back.
