!
A LOOSE HARNESS IS DANGEROUS.
The Padded Insert/s (if tted) are designed to
provide extra support and comfort for small
babies. Discontinue use when the insert is a
tight t or creates discomfort for larger
babies/children.
Always adjust the height of the shoulder straps
as the child grows.
NOTE: If Top Tether strap has been loosened to allow
easier placing of the baby in the restraint, tighten the
upper anchorage strap so it has no slack in it. DO
NOT TIGHTEN EXCESSIVELY.
Check the harness tightness by the PINCH TEST ,
this is acheived by pinching the harness webbing at
the shoulders (refer Figure 7)
• If you can pinch the harness strap, tighten more.
• If your ngers slip off, then the harness is tight
enough.
If required repeat Step 5.
Pull to tighten to remove all the slack, from the
upper anchorage strap. Do not overtighten as
this could cause the restraint to lift off the vehicle
seat (refer to Figure 8).
