TIGHTENING THE HARNESS
SLACKENING THE HARNESS
fig. 6
•
The harness is slackened by pressing the
lever (under the seat cover) on the fornt of the
seat.
•
Press down on the label marked “Press”
as you grip the two shoulder straps with your
other hand. Pull the shoulder straps towards
you to loosen the harness.
•
Take care when you adjust the shoulder
straps that you do not trap the harness adjuster
straps as you press the lever down.
• Pull the shoulder straps upwards to
remove the slack from the lap sections of the
harness, and then pull the adjuster strap until
the harness is fully tightened.
• The harness should be adjusted as tightly
as possible without causing discomfort to your
child.
• Ensure that the lap portion of the harness
is located as low as possible towards the
thighs-not around the tummy.
• A loose harness can be dangerous. Check
the harness adjustment and tighten each time
the child is placed in the seat.
• Finish tightening the webbing by pulling
the diagonal strap upwards until there is no
slack and the seat is held firmly in place. Now
you can strap your child into the seat.
• Make sure the seat belt has not become
twisted. Also check that the cover is not imped-
ing the movement or fit of the seat belt webbing
in any way.
• To release your child seat follow the above
instructions in reverse order.
