Harness

: Shoulder straps are attached to a splitter plate behind seat. Pull 

strap end in front of seat to tighten harness. Push lever at lower front of seat 
and pull on shoulder straps to loosen. Lap straps are threaded through slots 
at hips and run straight across under seat shell. 

 

Harness slots

: There are two sets of slots. To adjust harness for smaller 

infant, route straps through lowest set of slots, below metal bar (diagram 1). 
To use the lower set of harness slots, you must adjust headrest to lowest 
position, you must use upper set of loops on harness positioned as shown 

 

in diagram 2, you must use body pillow (diagram 3), and you must adjust 
crotch strap to innermost position with crotch strap anchor on top of shell

middle slot (diagram 4). Route harness straps and crotch strap through slots 
in body pillow. When using upper set of harness slots, harness straps must 
be routed over metal bar (diagram 5). Harness may be raised or lowered by 
rotating the levers at the upper sides of the headrest and lifting or lowering 
headrest (diagram 6). Make sure the headrest and metal bar at rear of 
seat are locked into position. 

 

Crotch strap:

 There are three positions. Middle or innermost slot must 

 

be used if child is rear

-

facing. Any slot may be used for forward

-

To change position, turn metal anchor under seat sideways and feed it 
through slot to top of seat. Re

-

thread through desired slot and tug to be 

sure anchor is flat underneath seat. If using harness slots below metal
