Click & Safe Snug Harness Indicator
®
IMPORTANT: See page 20 for detailed instructions on
securing your child.
The Click & Safe is designed to sense tension when the
adjuster strap is pulled and will provide an audible indication
when the child seat harness is within range of appropriate
snugness. The harness should have a comfortable but snug
fit around the 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. You should not be able to pinch excess
webbing at the shoulder. Follow the steps below to tighten
the harness.
To tighten the harness:
1. Remove any bulky clothing
from your child before
tightening the harness.
2. Check for proper harness
height.
3. Pull any excess slack in the
harness up to the child's
shoulder area.
4. Pull the harness adjuster strap up and away from
the child seat until a click is heard. The Click & Safe
indicator will click when the harness is within range
of appropriate snugness�
NOTE: If there is still slack in the harness, repeat the
steps above until another click indicates a snug harness.
It may be necessary to double check that the harness is
within range of appropriate snugness. Always confirm
a snug fit by attempting to pinch excess webbing in the
shoulders.
9 Check that the harness is buckled and secure.
9 Check that the harness is snug and you can not pinch

Adjusting the Harness Buckle Position

front of the buckle strap.

closest to but not under the child when using the lower
anchor installation.
• For forward-facing installation, use the outer buckle
slot when installing the child seat with a child weighing
30 lbs (13.6 kg) and above or if the buckle is under the
child in the inner position.
