Pull harness adjuster strap (fig. d) to snugly adjust harness straps onto child.
- Check that harness straps are snug on shoulder and thighs. Straps should not
allow a finger to pass between the belt and the child’s shoulder.
- A snug harness 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.
NOTE: If harness can not be snugly adjusted as described above:
- See “Harness Use and Adjustment” section.
Close chest clip and position chest clip at arm pit level (fig. e).
Snap harness adjuster strap to front of car seat pad.
Small infants:
For a small infant, a rolled towel can be used on each side for support (fig. e). Towels
MUST not interfere with the ability to snugly adjust the harness system. DO NOT place
towel or other items behind infant or between infant and harness.
