The upper part of the backrest is loosely
threaded on the shoulder straps so that the fab-
ric can be pulled up or down according to your
need. Inside the internal pouches for both straps
you will find snap-hooks, which make it possi
-
ble to attach the top of the backrest, at the de-
sired height, to the narrow strip sewed onto the
shoulder straps. Babies who are not able to sit
by themselves should always have the backrest
above the level of their shoulders with their arms tucked inside. Once
they learn to sit on their own the fabric only needs to reach as far as
their shoulder blades, and their arms can be left free. When you carry
a baby in front of your body, the top of the backrest can also be used
as head support. When the baby falls asleep, you can pull the fabric
high over the head. For the duration of the sleep you can secure the
backrest in the desired position with the snap-hooks, but it is usually
not necessary when carrying your child in front of you.
The baby is comfortable when the backrest supports the whole length
of their thighs. With the smallest babies you should adjust the width to the
narrowest position. Undo the studs on both sides of the black belt around
the waist and move them to the center as far as possible. Then only do up
the studs on the edge of the backrest and push out the excess fabric to the
outside of the carrier so that it does not cause discomfort to the baby. Fasten
the excess fabric with the cord located in the middle of the carrier.
