Place baby in the child restraint.
The baby’s back and
bottom should be flat against the restraint.
If there is a
gap, the baby will not be comfortable.
Securing the Child in the Child Restraint
Bring each harness strap over
the child’s shoulders. Insert
the buckle tongues
A
into
the buckle.
Pull up on the harness strap
to check that the buckle
tongues are fastened.

The harness straps must be
snug against the 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.
Check the harness straps near
the shoulders for slack. You
should
NOT
be able to pinch
the harness (see illustration).
Adjust as needed.
Fasten the chest clip
B
by snapping the two
halves together, as
shown.
Slide chest clip to armpit
level.
