Harness Strap Adjustment

When using the inner buckle strap slot for a child 5
kg (11 lbs) or below, the inner harness strap loops
must be used. When using the outer buckle strap
slot for a child above 5 kg (11 lbs), the end loops
of the harness strap must be used. See page 50.
Depending on the size of your child, you will need
to adjust the shoulder straps on the harness to
ensure the harness provides the most snug fit
around your child.
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.
To Adjust the Shoulder Straps of the Harness:
1
Locate the harness yoke on the
back of the infant carrier shell.
3 Select the appropriate loop on
the harness strap for the size of
your infant.
* Use the bottom loops for infants
5 kg (11 lbs) and under, and the
end loops for infants above 5 kg
(11 lbs).
* Do NOT use middle section
between the end and bottom
loops.
4 Slide the harness strap onto the
harness yoke.
