Section 7 - Securing Infant In Car Seat
Place harness straps over infants shoulders
and thighs, and secure the Harness Buckle.
The harness must be a snug (not loose) fit on
the infant.
A snug strap should not allow any slack. It lies
in a relatively straight line without sagging. It
does not press the infant's body into an
unnatural position.
To increase the tension of the harness, pull the
harness adjuster strap
IMPORTANT:
•
You should hear a "click" as the buckle
tongues
engage.
•
Pull up on tongues to be sure they are
locked.
"CLICK"
The Chect Clip increases the safety of the
harness by holding the shoulder straps
together.
Position the Chest Clip at arm pit level
Always use the Chest Clip when the Infant is
secured by the harness.
For a small infant a rolled towel can be used
on each side for support. Towels must not
prevent the harness from being adjusted to a
secure fit on the infant.
DO NOT place towel or other items behind
the infant or between the infant and the
harness.
Press to release
