4. Snugly adjust harness around your child by pulling the harness
adjuster strap at front of car seat shown.
See “Adjustment of the
Harness Straps” section for
more information on tightening
and loosening the harness.
5. Close Harness Clip and position as
close to arm pit level as possible.
6. Check that the Harness Straps are
snugly adjusted.
- Check that harness straps are snug on
child’s shoulders and thighs.
- The harness strap is properly tightened if
you are not able to insert more than one
finger between the harness strap and
the child’s shoulder or thigh.
- 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.
- Pull on the harness assembly to be sure
it is tight and cannot become loose.
