Securing Your Child

WARNING!

• 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.

• Adjust the harness to fit the clothes the child is wearing.

Remove bulky coats and/or jackets before putting the

child in the child seat.

• The HUGS™ chest pads must be used at all times when

installing the child seat forward-facing.

• Verify that the child seat is secure and the harness is

properly adjusted around the child

each time the child

seat is used.

Before You Begin:

• Follow the instructions on pages 16 and 17 to make the

proper adjustments to the harness and buckle.

* Rear-facing 5 – 40 lbs (2.3 – 18.1 kg) position 3 only.

* Forward-facing 20 – 70 lbs (9.1 31.8 kg) AND 1 year of age.

Position 1 or position 2 may be used.
