Securing Child in Child Restraint
Position Harness
Straps Over the
Child’s Shoulders.
1.
Buckle Harness
Push each buckle tongue
into buckle until you hear
a “click”. Remember to
always pull up on harness
straps to make sure buckle
is locked.
2.
Close Chest Clip
Insert right half of chest
clip into left half and
snap together.
3.
Tighten Harness
Pull on harness
tightening strap to tighten
harness snugly.
NOTE:
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.
4.
Failure to fasten and tighten the harness
system correctly and snugly can result in
serious injury or death.
Position Chest Clip
The chest clip must be
placed at mid-chest (even
with armpits) and away
from the child’s neck.
6.
Check Harness
Tightness
Try to pinch the harness
at the shoulders. If you
can pinch the harness
strap, tighten more. If
your fingers slip off, the
harness is tight enough.
