Changing Harness Position - Diono radian 3 RXT Instruction Manual

HARNESS ADJUSTMENT

Changing Harness Position

1. First Loosen the Harness Straps
Lift up on the harness release lever while pulling out
on the harness straps at the chest clip. Unbuckle the
chest clip. Detach the buckle tongues from the centre
buckle.
2. Remove Harness Straps from Metal Plate
On back of seat, detach harness from metal plate.
Once detached, pull each harness through to the front
of the seat. Re-locate each harness to the correct
slot determined, push through to the back of the seat
taking care to keep each harness strap flat. Re-secure
the Harness Straps to the Metal Plate. Check to ensure
proper engagement to the metal plate.
3. Check the Centre Buckle Position
When rear-facing, the correct slot is the one that is
closest to your child without being underneath your
child. When forward-facing, children 10-13.6 kg
(22-30 lbs) MUST use the middle buckle slot only.
Children above 13.6 kg (33 lbs) MUST use the forward
most buckle slot only.
4. To Adjust Centre Buckle Strap
Reach into the Rear-Facing Belt path slot marked in
blue. You will feel the buckle strap metal retainer.

Shell and Pad

6. Insert Metal Retainer in the New Buckle Slot
Position
Reach underneath the car seat and pull the metal
retainer through.
7. Pull Up on Centre Buckle Strap to Make Sure it is
Secured
8. Pull All the Slack Out From Around the Waist
Pull up on the harness strap while pushing the chest
clip down. Do this to both sides.
9. Tighten the Harness by Pulling the Harness
Adjustment Strap
When you are not able to pinch any of the harness
webbing at your child's shoulder, the harness is tight
enough. A snug harness 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.
10. Buckle the Chest Clip
You will hear a "click" when the chest clip is securely
buckled.
11. Raise the Chest Clip to the Child's Armpit Level.
