HOW TO INSTALL
IMPORTANT WARNING: THE ATTACHMENT CLIP COVER MUST ALWAYS BE USED AS IT
PREVENTS THE RISK OF INCORRECT FITMENT OF THE ATTACHMENT CLIP TO THE
ANCHOR FITTING. ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE ATTACHMENT CLIP IS CORRECTLY
ENGAGED TO THE ANCHOR FITTING AND NOT HOOKED OR FITTED TO ANY OTHER OBJECT
BEFORE EACH USE OF THE RESTRAINT. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT IN VEHICLES SUCH
AS STATION WAGONS, VANS, HATCH BACKS OR VEHICLES WITHOUT A FIXED PARCEL SHELF,
SINCE THE ANCHOR POINT IS USUALLY NOT VISIBLE.
The restraint strap & Attachment Clip may be damaged or disconnected by unsecured vehicle
contents. To ensure a secure engagement, before each use of the restraint follow this procedure:
Secure or remove any vehicle contents.
Tighten the Upper Anchorage Strap and ensure that strap is not twisted.
Make sure the Attachment Clip is correctly engaged.
The following diagram shows correct method of engaging Attachment Clip to Anchor Fitting.

when engaging the Harness Tongues. To restore the Harness Buckle to good working order it
needs to be cleaned as follows:
From the underside of the restraint
pull each crotch 3-bar slide then
turn 3-bar slide and push through
each slot to remove the Harness
Buckle from the restraint.
Place the Harness Buckle under warm
(approx. 40 degrees Celsius) running
water as shown below. Let the water run
through the mouth of the buckle for five
minutes.
