to remove all the slack. There
should not any extra tension
on the top tether. Do not push
on the car seat back while
tightening. Compressing the
car seat into the vehicle seat
might reslult in a top teather
that is too tight.
8. Test for tightness. Grab the
seat at the forward-facing
belt path. Try to move the car
seat side-to-side and front-to-
back with the force of a rm
handshake. If the seat moves
less than 1 in (2.5 cm), it is
tight enough. DO NOT test by
grasping the top or back of
the car seat. Only check by
grabbing forward-facing belt
path opening.
