6.2 For the 5-Point Harness
• Type A: Put the two buckle tongues together,
overlaying the left buckle tongue onto the
right buckle tongue, and insert the two joined
buckle tongues into the harness buckle on
the crotch strap (Fig. 36-1). Type B: Insert
each buckle tongue into the harness buckle
(Fig. 36-2).
Make sure that you hear the tongues click
into the buckle and check that both are rmly
latched by pulling upward on the straps. If
the harness straps are not securely buckled,
the safety seat will NOT provide protection
for your child. DO NOT use the safety seat,
even as a carrier, if the harness does not
securely buckle. Please call Baby Trend at
1-800-328-7363 for assistance.
• From the front of the Safety Seat, pull outward on the Harness
Adjuster Strap to tighten the Harness Straps. Make sure that both
Harness Straps are at and snug on your child’s shoulders. 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 esh or push the
child’s body into an unnatural position.
• Fasten the Harness Chest Clips together. Position the Harness
Chest Clip, by sliding the Clip either up or down on the
Harness Straps, so that it is level with the child’s armpits.

7.0 INSTALLATION
Accessory products for use with the Safety Seat are acceptable
for use provided that they do not interfere with the harness
assembly, or the proper adjustment of the harness such that it
remains tight on the child’s shoulders at all times. Thick, soft, or
other compressible material in excess of 1/4 inch thick should
not be placed behind or under the child or between the child
and harness straps. Examples of accessory products are head
support pillows or rolled blankets to add additional head support.
SECURING THE SAFETY SEAT OR BASE
IN THE VEHICLE
Please read carefully section 4.3, Check that the Vehicle Seat
Belt is Safe to Use, before proceeding with the installation of
the Safety Seat. Please understand that due to the extremely
large number of vehicles in use today, and the correspondingly
large number of safety belt systems, this section can only provide
guidance, as to the proper installation of the Safety Seat, that
must be combined with the information provided by your vehicle
manufacturer in order to obtain a proper and safe installation.
Failure to properly install and secure the Safety Seat in a rear
facing position within the vehicle increases the child’s risk of
death or serious injury in the event of a sharp turn, sudden stop
or crash. Carefully follow these instructions, and the instructions
provided by your vehicle manufacturer for the installation of child
safety seats, to ensure that the Safety Seat is properly located,
positioned and held tightly installed at all times.
