Securing Your Child; Harness Strap Adjustment - Britax B-SAFE User Manual

Securing Your Child

WARNING!
• Adjust harness to fit clothes the child is wearing. Remove bulky coats and/
or jackets before putting child in infant car seat.
• 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.
• Verify that the infant car seat is secure and that the harness is properly
adjusted around the child EACH time the infant car seat is used. Failure to
properly adjust the harness could result in death or serious injury.
• the harness straps should be located at the harness height position at or
below the child's shoulders.

Harness Strap Adjustment

• Loosen the infant car seat
harness by pressing the
harness adjuster release
button and pulling both
harness straps forward.

the back of the infant car seat.

is not twisted and rethread
the harness strap through the
head pad and then through
the appropriate harness height
slot in the cover and shell
(page 6).
• From the back of the seat,
reattach the harness straps to
the harness yoke.
