Routing paths for forward facing installation
5.1 Child Placement in Restraint
1. Place child in the restraint with the child’s back flat against the back
of the restraint and the child’s bottom touching the seat.
2. Place harness straps over the child’s shoulders.
Check the height of the harness straps at the child’s shoulders.
3. Place 5-point crotch buckle in rear position for rear facing and outer
position for forward facing.
4. Insert the buckle tongues into the buckle.
Note: Pull up and test
buckle tongues to be sure they are secure.
5. Place chest clip at arm pit level. Insert chest clip tabs and press
together. Pull outward on chest clip’s ends to be sure it is secure.
6. Pull on harness adjuster to tighten harness straps. A snug strap
should not allow any slack. It lies in a relatively straight line without
sagging. It does not press on to the child’s skin or push the child’s
body into an unnatural position.
