CARE & MAINTENANCE
BUCKLE OPERATION
To ensure the buckle remains operational the inside of the buckle must be kept free of liquids, sand, dirt,
fluff, food or similar substances. If the buckle is not operating or you do not hear a strong audible click when
the second tongue is inserted then the buckle needs to be washed or replaced. The buckle is fully engaged
when both tongues are inserted and a 'click' is heard. Contact Customer Service for assistance.
TO CLEAN HARNESS BUCKLE:
If sticky liquids such as baby formula, fruit juice, etc. get inside your
harness buckle, it may become sluggish. An indication of a sluggish
harness buckle is that you cannot hear a click when engaging the last
harness tongues. To restore the harness buckle to good working order it
needs to be cleaned as follows:
A. Remove the harness buckle from the restraint: From the underside of
the restraint pull each crotch strap 3-bar slide, turn the 3-bar slide on
its side and push back through the slot.
B. Place the harness buckle under warm (max. 40 degrees Celsius)
running water as shown below. Let the water run through the mouth
of the buckle for five minutes. Check the harness buckle is clean by
engaging the harness tongues and buckle several times until you
hear a click.
C. If you still cannot hear a strong audible click then repeat the cleaning
process several times.
D. Refit the harness buckle to the restraint ensuring the red button facing
outwards and the 3-bar slide is fed through the same slots.
If the Harness Buckle cannot be returned to its original working
condition then contact BRITAX Customer Service for assistance.
