6. Tighten harness.

Pull the harness adjuster strap

to tighten the harness.

The harness straps must be snug against the 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.

5. Remove all slack in

harness.

Pull upward on the
harness straps near the
hips,
as shown, to
ensure that all slack is
removed.

Important

Check the harness straps near the shoulders for slack.

You should NOT be able to pinch the harness (see
illustration). Adjust as needed.
