Move the harness straps to the side of the
child seat. Use the harness holder located
on the straps and side of the cover to aid in
holding the straps.
Place child in the child seat.
Position the harness straps around the child
and fasten the harness buckle (Fig. E) and
chest clip (Fig. F).
Proper connection of the harness buckle is
confirmed with a positive click after inserting
each buckle tongue.
Gently pull up on the harness straps to
tighten the lap section of the harness, which
should fit low on the child's body.
Slowly pull the adjuster strap to tighten the
harness around the child (Fig. G).
Position the chest clip at the middle of the
child's chest, level with the armpits (Fig. H).
Verify that harness is not twisted and child is
properly secured.
Always pull on the harness after securing the child to
ensure the buckle tongues are secure in the harness
buckle. If the buckle will not fasten with an audible
click after inserting each buckle tongue, the harness
buckle or adjuster area may be clogged with food,
drink or other debris that must be removed. See
page 37 for cleaning instructions.
Adjust the belts provided with this child seat so they
fit snugly around your child. 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.
