Adjust harness straps to be snug. 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 (fig. a).
Check that harness straps on chest and thighs
are snug.

A rolled towel can be used on each side to
support small children (fig. b). Be sure towels
do not interfere with harness system. Towels
should NOT be placed under child.
