When the rear of the seat is 10–13 cm (4–5 in) above the rear pins,
let the seat drop. This will ensure that the seat will properly latch into
the floor.

5. Insert the seat detachable anchor into detachable anchor tongue until
you hear a “click” and feel the latch engage.
6. Push up on the seat to verify that it is latched into the floor.
