Once the child seat has been installed in the
vehicle, follow these instructions to secure your
child in the child seat.
IMPORTANT: Before securing your child in the
child seat, always check the adjuster area for
debris (e.g., food, coins, toys, etc.). If debris is
present, it must be removed to prevent interference
with the adjuster mechanism.
Loosen the harness by lifting the adjuster lever 1
located in front of the child seat, then pull the
shoulder straps forward (Fig. A).
Open the chest clip by squeezing the middle
2
tabs, while pulling the two pieces apart (Fig. B).
Unfasten the buckle by pressing down on the
3
middle button.
Move the harness straps to the side of the
4
child seat. To aid in holding the straps, insert
the pieces of the chest clip into the harness
retainers on the cover.
Place the child in the child seat.
5
Position the harness straps around the child 6
and fasten the child seat buckle (Fig. C).
Proper connection is confirmed with a positive
click after inserting the second buckle tongue.
Gently pull up on the harness straps to tighten
7
the lap section of the harness, which should fit
low on your child’s body.
Fasten the chest clip by connecting the two
8
halves together (Fig. D).
Slowly pull the adjuster strap to tighten the 9
harness around the child (Fig. E).
The correct height for the chest clip is at the •
middle of the chest, level with the child’s armpit
(Fig. F).
The HUGS pads may be placed in any position
•
that is comfortable for the child, within the
range of the correctly placed chest clip.
Verify that harness is not twisted and child is 10
properly secured.

WARNING! HUGS ™ chest pads must
be used at all times.
IMPORTANT:
Always pull on the harness after securing the child to ensure the •
buckle tongues are secure in the harness buckle. If the buckle
will not fasten with an audible click after insertion of each buckle
tongue, the harness buckle or adjuster area may be clogged
with debris that needs to be removed. See page 39 for cleaning
instructions.
Adjust the belts provided with the child seat so they fit snugly
•
around your child. 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.
