shall be set to the adjustment positions specified in paragraph 4. of this annex.
8.2.                              Passenger compartment adjustments shall be set to the adjustment positions specified in paragraph 5. of this annex.
8.3.                              The test dummy shall then be installed by completion of the steps outlined in paragraph 8.4. below; with the test vehicle at the vehicle measuring attitude established in accordance with paragraph 3. of this annex.
8.4.                              Dummy installation procedure
8.4.1.                        Place the test dummy in the applicable seat such that the mid-sagittal plane is coincident with the C/LO and the upper torso is resting against the seat back. [13]
8.4.2.                        Apply a for/aft and lateral rocking motion to settle the pelvis rearward in the seat. [14]
8.4.3.                        Where the abdominal rib coupler and/or the outer band of each (i.e. left/right) lower abdominal rib assembly contacts the pelvis flesh, ensure the contacting surfaces of the abdominal rib coupler and the outer band of each lower abdominal rib are positioned in-behind the inner abdominal wall of the pelvis flesh, not on top of the pelvis flesh.
8.5.                              Move the seat cushion and seat back together with the test dummy to the final adjustment position used to determine the manikin H‑point and actual torso angle in paragraph 7. of this annex.
8.5.1.                        Verify that the dummy H-point is reasonably close (±10 mm) to the WS50M H‑point defined in paragraph 2.25. of this annex. If not, repeat the procedures outlined in paragraphs 8.4.2. to 8.4.3. of this annex.  If it is still not possible to verify the dummy H‑point is reasonably close (±10 mm) to the WS50M H-point, record the offset and proceed to the next step.
8.5.2.                        If it is not possible to reach the seat test position due to knee contact, shift the targeted test seat position rearwards in stepwise increments to the closest position where the knee clearance is at least 5 mm.  Record the adjustment of the SCRP position and modify the manikin H-point and WS50M H-point coordinates accordingly.
8.5.3.                        For a driver seating position:
8.5.3.1.                  Extend the right leg without displacing the thigh from the seat cushion and allow the sole of the foot to settle on the accelerator pedal. The heel of the shoe should be in contact with the floor-pan.
8.5.3.2.                   Extend the left leg without displacing the thigh from the seat cushion and allow the sole of the foot to settle on the footrest. The heel of the shoe should be in contact with the floor-pan. In case of tibia contact, slide the foot rearward (towards the seat) until a 5 mm clearance is obtained.
8.5.4.                        For a passenger seating position:
8.5.4.1.                   Extend each leg without displacing the thigh from the seat cushion.
