What is the installation method for Chicco car seats?

ISOFIX installation is very simple. First, you need to locate the ISOFIX anchor points on the rear seats of the car. After confirming there's no play by wiggling left and right, proceed to complete the final step.
I've installed several Chicco car seats before, and found the easiest method is using the ISOFIX system. Just insert those two metal connectors at the base directly into the vehicle's rear seat anchors until you hear a 'click' sound indicating proper locking. The most crucial step involves the support leg at the back of the base - it must be rotated all the way down to firmly contact the vehicle floor, with the green indicator window popping out to confirm stability. Once I didn't tighten the support leg properly, and the entire seat wobbled dangerously. Another important reminder: seat belt installation is particularly error-prone. You must carefully follow the manual's instructions for threading the belt through the blue guides on the seatback, using your knee to press down on the seat while pulling the belt tight with both hands until it's completely taut. Always test the installed seat by shaking it vigorously side-to-side before placing your child in it - the movement shouldn't exceed 2.5 centimeters.
