Position Chest Clip
The chest clip must be placed at
mid-chest (even with armpits) and
away from the child’s neck.
6.
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.
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.
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.
DO NOT put snowsuits or bulky
garments on your child when
placing them in the child restraint.
Bulky clothing can prevent the
harness straps from being tightened
properly.
