Securing Your Child

Adjusting the Harness Height

IMPORTANT:
See Important Harness
Adjustments on pages 6–7 for instructions on
proper harness fit based on your child's height
and weight.
1 Loosen the harness by lifting the harness
adjuster lever while pulling both harness
straps forward as far as possible (Fig A).
2 Rotate the head restraint adjustment knob
on either side of child seat to raise or lower
the head restraint and harness (Fig. B).
NOTE: DO NOT force the head restraint
adjustment knob in either direction. If the knob
is difficult to turn, the head restraint may be at
maximum or minimum height, the harness may
be tight, or the child's weight is pressing against
the head restraint cover.
TIP: The side impact cushions can be moved for
easier access to the head restraint adjustment
knob.
Buckling and Tightening the
Harness
1 Loosen the harness by lifting the harness
adjuster release lever located on the front
of the child seat while pulling both shoulder
straps forward (Fig. C).
2 Release the chest clip by squeezing the tabs
and sliding the pieces apart (Fig. D).
3 Unfasten the harness buckle by pressing the
release button and sliding the tongues out.

child seat.
