1.
To create backpack straps, fasten one of
the “shoulder straps” to the same side
“lower shoulder strap buckle” at the bottom of
the carrier nearest to the baby’s leg. You will
hear a ‘click’ when the buckle is locked in
position. Make sure that the buckle is fastened
in the correct orientation, so that the
“shoulder strap” is not twisted. Repeat this
step for the strap on the other side.

RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE
If another person is available, have him or her
lift the child in the carrier to the proper height.
Slip your arms through the “shoulder straps” and
adjust both straps for a proper t, while your
partner continues to support the weight of the
child.
3.
* IMPORTANT! Do not use the printed “chest strap”
across baby’s chest in the Backpack position.
If it is attached, remove the “bib/hood,” and
stow it in the “storage pocket.” Repeat steps 1-5
of 1 CARRIER USE FOR AN INFANT: Facing-in
position
ALTERNATIVE PROCEDURE
If it is necessary to put the carrier on without
assistance, set the carrier and baby in a secure
corner (like a couch) so that baby’s back is
supported and the baby is sitting upright. Keep
the straps clear of the baby’s face.
