Radian RXT LATCH?

Me again.....

In the process of switching my Radian from belonging to DD1 (seatbelt install) to DD2 (LATCH install.....was never 100% happy with the seat belt install on that one) I have come across a question:

When the LATCH system is sitting out, the red buttons remain depressed, and the clip is OPEN. When I shove it onto the anchors in the car, it attaches and closes. Is this correct? Makes me worry that there is something wrong with the LATCH clips and they won't stay attached to the car.

Sigh......should've just left it with the seatbelt install, but they insisted on staying in their "usual" positions in the car, which is why I uninstalled the thing in the first place.

Probably just it's mechanical make up... if one part is out, one part is in, and vice versa.
