WARNING!
A CORRECTLY ADJUSTED HARNESS IS
ESSENTIAL FOR YOUR CHILD’S PROTECTION. THERE
SHOULD NOT BE MORE THAN A FINGERS WIDTH BETWEEN
THE HARNESS AND YOUR CHILD.
However safe a child seat is, however well built it is, your child’s
safety depends on you carrying out the following checks before
every journey.
- Set the harness correctly and to the correct shoulder
height (22 - 28)!
- Ensure the harness straps are not twisted!
- Check the harness is set for the clothing and not loose!
- Check the harness is secure with the buckle and shoulder
strap connectors latched together and harness tension is cor-
rect (27, 28)!
- Check the car seat is facing rearwards in the vehicle and is
fully reclined (9)!
IMPORTANT!
Misusing your child car seat will reduce the
protection and safety you offer your child.
