you tighten the belt.
There must not be direct contact of the child
restraint to the buckle release pushbutton.
If there is contact, move the seat upward
and repeat prior installation steps. If there
is still contact, reposition the child restraint
using the instructions that came with the
child restraint. If there is still contact, use
another seating position or child restraint.

make sure the retractor is locked. If the
retractor is not locked, repeat Steps 5 and 6.

make sure it is securely held in place. To
check, firmly grip the child restraint at the
seat belt path and attempt to move it side
to side and back and forth. When the child
restraint is properly installed, there should
be no more than 2.5 cm (1 in) of movement.
