Securing Child in Child Restraint
11 12
1. Place Child in Child
Restraint
The child’s bottom and back
should be fl at against the child
restraint.
Position harness straps over child’s
shoulders and upper thighs.
3. Close Chest Clip
Insert right half of chest clip into
left half and snap together.
2. Buckle Harness
Push buckle tongues into buckle
until you hear a “click.”
Pull up on harness straps to make
sure buckle is locked.
4. Tighten Harness
Pull on harness adjustment strap to
tighten harness snugly.
6. Check Harness
Tightness
Try to pinch the harness at the
shoulders vertically between index
fi nger and thumb as shown.
If your fi ngers slip off, the har-
ness is tight enough.
If you can pinch the
harness strap, tighten more.
The harness strap should be snug
throughout its length.
5. Position Chest Clip
The chest clip must be placed at
mid-chest (even with armpits) and
away from the child’s neck.
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.
