a bench or other raised flat surface.
* Have a second adult grasp the backpack by the carry handle and rear of seat

shoulder height. Insert each arm through the shoulder straps and buckle the
waist belt around your waist. Attach the sternum strap.
* Check that the child’s legs are not trapped between the Backpack and your
back. Check that the child is comfortable.
