positioned on your child.
• Harness straps should be located in the
nearest slot at or above the child’s shoulders.

restraint without adjustment. If harness
height requires adjustment, refer to
Harness Height Adjustment below.
NOTE: Once the top slots become
necessary, your child may continue to
use the restraint until the top of the
ears become level with the top of the
restraint shell, the child’s shoulder
height exceeds the height of the top
slots, or the child’s weight exceeds 105
pounds (48 kg).
Harness Height Adjustment
1 Loosen the harness, by lifting the
harness adjuster while pulling the
shoulder straps forward as far as
possible (Fig. A).
