70 Care and Maintenance
Replace the Buckle
1 Turn the buckle strap retainer
so that the short side will go
through the slot in the cover
and infant carrier shell.
3 Pull the buckle away from the
infant carrier to ensure the
buckle strap retainer lies flat
against the infant carrier shell.
2 Push the buckle strap retainer
through the desired slot in the
infant carrier shell and cover
to the bottom of the infant
carrier shell.
4 Check that the buckle strap
is not twisted and that the red
release button faces out.
Troubleshooting the Lower Connectors
If an audible click is not heard when connecting a lower connector:
• Check that the lower connector strap is not too tight or twisted.
• Clean away any debris that may be in the lower connector.
Troubleshooting the Head Restraint
If the head restraint is difficult to adjust or the head restraint does not
move when releasing the adjuster handle:
• The head restraint may be at maximum or minimum height.
• The child's weight may be pressing against the head restraint or
• The harness may need to be loosened
* Do not force the head restraint in either direction.
Troubleshooting the Harness Adjuster
If the harness adjuster is hard to pull:
• Pull the harness adjuster strap away from the child seat (parallel to
the ground) to tighten.
* Do not pull sideways.
* Do not wrap the harness adjuster strap around your hand while pulling.
• Check that the harness yoke is not tangled under the infant carrier.
Always ensure the attachment points of the base are accessible
or clear the seating area where the infant carrier will be installed
of any objects or debris to ensure the infant carrier will perform as
intended.
If the adjuster strap is fraying at the sides:
• Pull the harness adjuster strap away from the child seat (parallel to
the ground) to tighten.
* Do not pull at a sideways angle. Doing so can cause the harness
adjuster strap to fray at the sides. See page 56.
