SECURING YOUR CHILD
2. Detach harness straps from metal plate on back
of seat.
Pull each harness through to the front of
the seat. Re-locate each harness to the correct slot
determined, push through to the back of the seat
taking care to keep each harness strap flat. Re-secure
the harness straps to the metal plate. Check to ensure
harness loops are properly secured to the metal plate.
3. Check the center buckle position.
When rear-facing,
the correct slot is the one that is closest to your child
without being underneath your child. When forward-
facing, children 22–30 lb (10–13.6 kg)
MUST
use the
middle buckle slot only. Children above 30 lb (13.6 kg)
MUST
use the forward most buckle slot only.
4. To adjust center buckle strap —
Remove all lower
seat cover clips. Reach into the rear-facing belt
path. You will feel the buckle strap metal retainer.
5. Rotate metal retainer and insert it up through the
shell and pad.
From the top of the car seat, pull the
buckle strap out.
6. Insert metal retainer in the new buckle slot
position.
Reach underneath the car seat and pull
the metal retainer through.
CHANGING HARNESS POSITION
7. Tighten the harness by pulling the harness
adjustment strap.
When you are not able to
pinch any of the harness webbing at your child’s
shoulder, the harness is tight enough. A snug
harness 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.
8. Buckle the chest clip.
You will hear a “click” when
the chest clip is securely buckled.
9. Place the chest clip at armpit
level.
CHANGING HARNESS POSITION
1. Loosen the harness straps.
Lift up on the harness
release lever while pulling out on the harness straps
at the chest clip. Unbuckle the chest clip. Detach
the buckle tongues from the center buckle.
