ADJUSTING THE SLIDEGUARD™ CLIP POSITION
IMPORTANT:
The SLIDEGUARD™ Clip ensures that the child does not slump and ensures the lap belt is always
positioned on the child's hips and thighs. If the seat belt rides up onto the stomach then a child can be
seriously injured in a crash. To adjust buckle height, see page 38. You must adjust the crotch strap
to the correct length for your child before installing the restraint as it cannot be adjusted with the child
seated.
The crotch strap should only be extended if the buckle and SLIDEGUARD™ Clip are located too low
against your child's legs, causing discomfort.
Always return the crotch strap to its original shorter length when using the seat with a smaller child.
The buckle and SLIDEGUARD™Clip should always be positioned low down on your child's body.
A. Sit the restraint against a wall for stability and get the child to sit comfortably in position.
B. Determine the correct buckle position. The centre of the buckle needs to be level with the top of the
legs.
