the shoulders.
If the upper harness guides
are below the child’s
shoulders with the headrest
in the highest position and
the child weighs at least 18
kg (40 lb) and is over 1 year old, you must convert the child
restraint to a booster seat.

below
the shoulders.
If the upper harness guides

Children have a tendency to
want to slouch. Make sure the child’s bottom and back are flat
against the child restraint. If harness height is still incorrect,
call Consumer Relations for more detailed help.
