English term or phrase: ...is seated properly
Occurs in the sentence:

Ensure that the part is seated properly.

This is a removable mechanical part, and the instruction should contain the implication that the part is locked into position.

I am considering using 被妥当地锁定 but do not want to confuse that with another situation when there is an actual lock mechanism.

On the other hand, using something such as 位置正确 sounds a bit weak.

固定在正确位置


Explanation:
seat有安装、安置的意思。

我觉得”锁定“的确不太妥当,用”固定“似乎好一些?
”确保将零件安装到正确位置“或者”确保将零件固定在正确位置“。
