• Once seat belt is attached and properly adjusted, grasp
the two straps (lap and shoulder) together as close to
the vehicle belt buckle plate as possible. Unbuckle the
belt without allowing it to slip.
• Attach the locking clip around both lap and shoulder
belts ❶.
• Position the locking clip about
1 inch (2.5 cm) from vehicle belt's
buckle plate.
• Rebuckle belt. Check that the lap
belt does not move by pulling hard.
If belt loosens or lengthens, repeat
the procedure.
Test installation to see if child restraint is secure. The
child restraint should NOT be able to move in any
direction where is connects to the vehicle. If the child
restraint can be moved more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) in any
direction at the connection point, then unbuckle the
seat completely and repeat the steps above until secure
(see "Installation safety check", pg. 31). If you have any
questions, please contact Harmony Juvenile Products
customer service.
! Store locking clip when not in use.
! DO NOT use locking clip in booster mode.
! THE TOP TETHER MUST BE USED AT ALL TIMES WHEN
USING CHILD RESTRAINT IN HARNESS MODE. Using
your child restraint with the top tether strap properly
anchored to the vehicle, as indicated in these
instructions, may reduce the chance and severity of
injury or death to your child in the event of a sudden
stop or crash.
