1.
If your child restraint is not held securely by the
belt:
Press down firmly on the child restraint and remove all the
slack in the belt. Make sure the belt buckle is not up against
the child restraint where the belt cannot be tightened.
Review Locking Clip section and Tether Section. If you
cannot secure the child restraint tightly, move it to another
seating location.
2.
If the child restraint buckle or harness
adjustment lever sticks or you cannot get the straps
tight enough around child:
DO NOT LUBRICATE. Check around lever and retractor
for dropped food, sticky spilled drinks, dirt, leaves, etc. Clean
with warm water and/or remove object with tweezers. If you
cannot get the harness to adjust and remain tight with the
buckle securely locked, do not use the child restraint.
3.
If your harness twists or ropes: Straighten the
harness each time you put your child in the seat to help
prevent twisting. Lock the buckle and tighten harness and it
will be ready for next use.
4.
If your infant sits too upright in the rear-facing
position: If your vehicle seat slopes so much that your
infant is sitting upright, you may place a rolled towel under
the front of the child restraint so that the level line on the
shoulder belt guide is level (horizontal). Check often to be
sure padding is still in place and the vehicle belt is tight.
WARNING
Using padding that tilts the base of the child
restraint farther back than the level-to-
ground line could result in serious injury or
death.
