Problem Possible Solution
There may be debris or other objects
interfering with the mechanism.
Ensure the seat area is clear of any
obstructions and try closing the
CLICKTIGHT again.
There may be too much tension in
the belt/strap. Do not overtighten
the belt/strap before closing the
CLICKTIGHT. Only remove slack.
Press down again on the
CLICKTIGHT to the left and right of
the bezel to ensure the CLICKTIGHT
pins have fully engaged.
There may be debris in the
mechanism. Clean the mechanism,
then try using the button again.
Check the seating position where
the child seat is installed. The vehicle
head restraint may obstruct the path
of the child seat harness height
adjuster. Remove or raise the vehicle
head restraint and try adjusting the
harness height again.
The harness can be adjusted to a
shortened length for use with small
infants (approx. 4.5 kg (10 lbs)
and under). See pages 22-23 for
instructions on adjusting the harness
length.
The harness may be at maximum or
minimum height, the harness may
be too tight to adjust, or the child's
weight may be pressing against the
head pad. Check for and correct all
of the above where necessary and
try adjusting the harness again.
Pull comfort pads and impact
absorbing chest pads down. Hold
harness straps up and away from
seat while closing the CLICKTIGHT.
There may be debris in the buckle
mechanism. Clean the buckle (see
page 43), then try fastening the
buckle again.
