Securing Child in Car Seat
Check Harness Tightness
Try to pinch the harness strap at the
shoulder vertically between your index
finger and thumb as shown.

the harness
system is tight enough.
If you can pinch the harness strap,
tighten more.

Position Chest Clip
Slide the chest clip up the harness
straps and position it at mid-chest
(even with armpits) and away from
your child’s neck.
A snug 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.
