To adjust the width of the back support, please release the defining strap on the both sides of waist
belt. To set the fasting system on the belt release the velcro and move the fabric as far as you need.
Once set, please secure velcro with gentle pressure on waist belt area. Cover the remaining revealed
velcro with defining strap.
You can find stitching on the waist
belt part of the velcro. Those stitching
are used as the marks for level of
adjusting the width of the back
support. They match with following
approximate height of the kid:
“maximum” : 75 cm
Middle stitching : 65 cm
“minimum” : 50 cm
Always adjust both sides of back
support evenly!

.
Once you adjust both sides equally, straigten
the waist belt so that is not twisted outwards
but inwards towards the wearer. Check the
overal settings. This completes setting the
width of the back support. Now reduce the
height of the back support.
Stitching on velcro are only approximate. Please respect the baby’s actual position in carrier. The
back support should always lead from knee to knee.

The height of back support can be adjusted with black straps on the front sides of carrier. Tightening

For small babies without firm neck, use rolled up hood as additional neck support as displayed on pictures
bellow. Roll up the hood and attach its rubber band in the dedicated hook placed on the shoulder strap.
To reduce the width of the
back support under the
child's neck use a rubber
band under the hood. The
resulting collar supports the
head of newborns.
When using hood to
cover sleeping baby
head, use the second,
adjustable hook
above.

Place the waist belt on your belt. Pull the buckle through the safety rubber band , fasten the buckle and secure
the safety lock and tight the belt. Don't underestimate this triple safety system!
Place the baby on your belly, facing towards you. Keep in mind that correct ergonomic position is with baby’s
bum slightly covering the waist belt, legs well spread and knees risen above the bum level. Once positioned,
rise the back support part over the baby’s back and wear the shoulders straps, one by one. Fasten the back
buckle afterwards and adjust the length of the back strap if needed.
Grasp the baby's knees and, by pulling
child up, place it firmly in the fabric of
the back support.
Pull the back support toward baby’s
shoulder. Tighten or loosen the shoulder
straps as you need.
Adjust the width of the back support
under the child's neck using a rubber
band under the hood.

Switching the side straps under the baby’s bum
* use from birth to about 6-8 weeks *
Unfasten the shoulder strap, loosen it sufficiently
and guide it under the baby's knee. Snap the
buckle into the trident under the child's bum. Do
the same on the other side. Tighten the straps as
required.
(You do not need to unfasten the straps when
taking the child out of the carrier. Just pull the
straps out / under baby's legs, so carrier remains
set for you to carry it again.)
Once the baby slowly begins to hold his head
and his spine begins to straighten, you can
fasten the straps to the side buckles.
(You can then elegantly remove the unused
trident from rubber band on the waist belt.)
Thanks to the side buckles, the shoulder
straps can also be crossed for front wear.
Note: The seating position is right if baby covers one third of waist belt with his bum. Back support should
always reach to the baby’s neck. Kid’s arms should stay inside the carrier as long as baby is not able to sit by
her/himself on the floor.
