Take particular care when a baby is carried in a back carry
position. For smaller babies or for adults with short torso,
wear the carrier waist belt higher on body so baby’s head
is positioned close enough to kiss when using the front
carry position. For those with longer torso, we suggest
wearing the waist belt up higher, around the belly button
level. Never use this product when balance or mobility is
impaired because of exercise, drowsiness, or medical
conditions. Never use this product while engaging in
activities such as cooking and cleaning which involve a
heat source or exposure to chemicals. Never wear a soft
carrier while driving or being a passenger in a vehicle. Be
careful when drinking hot beverage to avoid spilling hot
drinks onto the baby while using the carrier. The carrier
should not be used unless and until the wearer
understands the instructions and safety features and is
confident and comfortable with respect to the use of the
carrier. The carrier is only intended for use by healthy
adults. An individual in good health should be able to
carry 20% of their body weight in a traditional backpack
design. The carrier should not be used by a person with
any health problems that might interfere with the safe use
of the product. If the person using the carrier should
develop shoulder, back, or neck problems, discontinue its
use and consult a qualified medical professional.
Discontinue use of the carrier if the baby shows signs of
discomfort while being carried. Please choose the right
materials for the child to wear. Always check for baby’s
comfort and temperature changes. Contact customer
service for additional assistance if needed. Only use the
front outward-facing, back and hip carry position when
baby has demonstrated strong and consistent head and
neck control. Child must face towards you until he can
hold head upright. The references to ages by month are
only general guidelines and each baby’s development is
different. Please check that your baby meets the specific
requirements for use.
