Place Buckle Tongues together and insert into
buckle
(fig. c)
. You should hear a click.
Pull up on tongues to be sure they are locked.
Pull Harness Adjuster Strap
(fig. d)
to snugly
adjust harness straps onto child.
- Check that Harness Straps are snug on
shoulders and thighs. Straps should not
allow one finger to pass between the belt
and the child’s shoulder.
- A snug Harness 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.
NOTE:
If Harness Straps can not be snugly
adjusted as described above:
- See “Harness Use and Adjustment” section.
