Belt folding on Cybex booster?

I bought this a couple of month ago and tried it out for DS but ultimately decided to continue harnessing him for now. But I took these pictures of both kids in the seat and the belt folded. Is this OK? DD was just the only one home when I installed it so I had to make her try it but obviously the seat was intended for my 6 yr old. Installed in a 2006 Sienna.
I have to upload from my phone so the photos will be coming soon.

Hmm that's funny. Mine doesn't do that, and hasn't in any of the cars it has been in. Are you pulling the seatbelt really tight across the lap?

That's fine. It's folded, not twisted or in knots. It actually happens in boosters more than you think. The angle that the seatbelt hits the booster and/or how tight of a spot it is b/t the armrest and the boosters bottom are what cause it. When you buckle your child into it, just smooth it out all the wall and make sure the belt isn't twisted.

The Cybex folds the belt pretty easily, both lap and shoulder. I just check it every time to unfold what I can. It almost always has a little crease in it. We've used it every day since mid-August for my 6 yr old.
