Incorrect Fitment

It is important that your child is correctly fitted in their seat.  Take care to ensure none of the 
below situations occur when securing your child.

In some cases, the strap attached to the seat belt buckle can be too long and ride too high 

under the armrest, preventing the car seat from being fixed firmly.  If this happens, choose 
another location in the car.  If you have any questions relating to this issue, you should contact 

the manufacturer.
