Check Harness Tightness
Try to pinch the harness at the
shoulders vertically between index
finger and thumb as shown.
If your fingers slip off
, the
harness is tight enough.
If you can pinch the harness
strap
, tighten more. The harness
straps should be snug throughout
their length.
5.
Position Chest Clip
The chest clip must be placed at
mid-chest (even with armpits) and
away from the child’s neck.
WARNINGS:
Failure to fasten and tighten the harness
system correctly may allow the child to be ejected from the
child restraint in a crash or sudden stop causing serious
injury or death.
Do not mistake comfort for safety. Harness system must be
snugly adjusted.
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.
