Fitting Instructions
Please
read complete instruction before fitting
Before
fitting the harness, fix the lap and diagonal seat belt around the
seat as if there was a person sitting in it. The purpose of this
is to ensure that if you have fold forward rear seat back, it will
not break forward in an accident. Alternatively you may place the
seat belt around the occupant after the harness is fitted.
The seat belt must be in operation at all times.
Fitting.
The
harness comes assembled. Lay it on a table to understand where the
straps go before you detach anything. It looks more complicated
than it is!
Take
item (1), unhook it, place the adjustable strap end over the top
of the car seat and pass the other end between the split in the
cushion and the back. Attach each end together making sure they
are not twisted. Repeat for the other strap marked (1). Pull the
adjuster to take the slack out of the strap, not too tight as adjustments
may have to be made at item (2) and (3).
Adjuster
buckle item (2) needs to be a little higher than the occupants shoulder,
it is difficult for me to explain the operation of moving it, but
it will be come obvious when you look at how it moves up and down.
Adjuster
buckle (3) works in the same way as (2). It may not have to be moved
at all. It is best at this stage to place the booster cushion (4)
on the seat as the thigh straps (5) need to be left long enough
to go under the wings of the booster and fasten around the occupant.
The
crotch strap in the booster cushion is adjustable for length. It
should not be set too high, certainly no higher than the height
of the wings on the booster cushion itself.
Finally,
tighten item (1)
Buckles
marked (6) are the final adjustment buckles for the occupant. Pull
the ‘free’ strap to tighten, to release, place your
thumb on the thick part of the buckle and squeeze the top sprung
part of the buckle with your two middle fingers, this releases the
webbing and allows you to pull it back.
