Care for the Harness Buckle
It is vital for the safety of your child that the harness buckle works correctly.
Malfunctions of the harness buckle are usually caused by accumulations of dirt
or foreign bodies.
Malfunctions are as follows:
• The buckle latches are ejected slowly when the red release button is pressed.
• The buckle latches will no longer lock into the buckle (i.e. they are ejected if
you try to push them in).
• The buckle latches engage without an audible “click“.
• The buckle latches are difficult to insert (you feel resistance).
• The buckle only opens if extreme force is applied.
Remedy:
Wash out the harness buckle so that it functions properly again.
Removing the Harness Buckle:
1 - Adjust the child seat to position 4.
2 - Twist the buckle underneath the shell sideways.
3 - Thread the buckle upwards through the slot.
4 - Remove the Buckle from the child seat.
Cleaning the Harness Buckle:
1 - Soak the harness buckle in warm water with washing-up liquid for at least an
hour. Then rinse and dry it thoroughly.
