Securing Your Child
WARNING!
• Adjust the belts provided with this child seat so they
fit snugly 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.
• Adjust the harness to fit the clothes the child is wearing.
Remove bulky coats and/or jackets before putting the
child in the child seat.
• The HUGS™ chest pads must be used at all times when
installing the child seat forward-facing.
• Verify that the child seat is secure and the harness is
properly adjusted around the child each time the child
seat is used.
Before You Begin:
Follow the instructions on pages 16 and 17 to make the
proper adjustments to the harness and buckle.
* Rear-facing 5 – 40 lbs (2.3 – 18.1 kg) position 3 only.
* Forward-facing 20 – 70 lbs (9.1 31.8 kg) AND 1 year of age.
Position 1 or position 2 may be used.
