4. PLACING YOUR CHILD IN THE MAXI-COSI PRIORIFIX
4.1 Using the harness system
A. Adjusting the height of the harness

Before securing your child in the car seat using the harness system, you must first determine the correct
height of the shoulder belts for your child (25). Make sure that the shoulder belts fit properly over the
shoulders of the child.

• Loosen the shoulder belts by pressing the release button (26,1) and pulling the shoulder belts towards you
as far as possible (26,2).
• IMPORTANT! Do not pull on the belt pads when doing so.
27
• Open the belt buckle (27) by pressing the red button on the buckle.

• Loosen the shoulder belts by pressing the release button and pulling the shoulder belts towards you as far
as possible (28).
29

31
• Position your child with his or her back upright against the back of the Maxi-Cosi PrioriFix (31).
• Determine the correct height of the shoulder belts for your child.

• IMPORTANT! The correct height of the shoulder belts is attained when the belt disappears into the shell
slightly above your child's shoulders (32).
• Remove your child from the Maxi-Cosi PrioriFix.
33
• To adjust the shoulder belts to the correct height, lift up the flap on the cover by the shoulder belt slots (33).

them (34).
• Push the loop back through the opening.
35
• Slide the shoulder belt and the belt pad strap through the slot together into the desired position (35).
• IMPORTANT! Always do this on both sides.
36
