ADJUSTING HASSLE FREE HARNESS™ HEADREST
Correct fitment of the harness is very important as it restrains the child in the restraint. The headrest must
be in the correct position & the harness must fit firmly around upper torso of the child and be positioned so
as to leave the child's arms and legs free.
In rearward facing mode the headrest must be in the position where the
top
of the shoulder strap slots
are nearest to the child’s shoulders, but not lower than the child’s shoulders. Instructions for adjusting the
headrest are on the next page. If your child has reached the lower shoulder height marker then the restraint
may be converted to forward facing mode (Refer to Forward Facing section from page 54).

HOW TO USE
HOW TO USE
1. The shoulder straps must be positioned in slots which are nearest to the child's shoulders, but not lower
than the child's shoulders. There is only one set of slots so the seat will always have the shoulder straps in
place once the headrest is positioned correctly.
2. The padded insert may be used for smaller babies in rearward facing mode.
3. Discontinue the use of the padded insert if there is insufficient room for the child or shoulders have
reached the lower shoulder height marker.
When positioning baby into the restraint make sure baby's back is fully supported onto the flat section and
the baby's nappy area (bottom) is resting in the bottom curvature as shown. It is recommended that bulky
nappies are not used when baby is travelling in the restraint as they can cause incorrect positioning of the
baby's back in the restraint.
