Check Harness Tightness
Unfasten harness covers.
Try to pinch the harness at the
shoulders vertically between index
fi nger and thumb as shown.
If your fi ngers slip off, the harness
is tight enough.
If you can pinch the harness strap, tighten more.
Fasten harness covers.
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
fl esh or push the child’s body into an unnatural position.
