Place harness straps over child’s shoulders and thighs.
Place top of buckle tongues together and insert buckle tongues into buckle
(fig. b)
.
You should hear a click.
Pull up on tongues to be sure they are locked.
Pull harness adjuster strap
(fig. c)
to snugly adjust harness straps.
- Check that harness straps are snug on shoulder and thighs. Straps should not
allow a finger to pass between the belt and the child’s shoulder.
- A snug harness strap should not allow any slack. It lies in a relatively straight line
without sagging. It does not press on the child’s flesh or push the child’s body into an
unnatural position.
NOTE:
If harness can not be snugly adjusted as described above, do not use
this infant car seat.
Close chest clip and position chest clip at arm pit level
(fig. d)
.
Small infants:
For a small infant, a rolled towel can be used on each side for support
(fig. d)
.
Towels MUST not interfere with the ability to snugly adjust the harness system.
DO NOT place towel or other items behind infant or between infant and harness.
