Using the Harness
The harness is a ve point system
consisting of shoulder straps, waist straps
and crotch strap. Before you use the
pushchair, the harness must be adjusted to
suit the size of the child.
4.1 It is very important that you make
sure the shoulder straps are the
correct height for your child. The
shoulder straps should be level or just
below your child’s shoulders.
In a safe and secure environment,
place your child in the pushchair
with the backrest upright and assess
which of the three shoulder strap
height positions is most suitable for
your child.
NOTE: Winter/Summer clothing
can make a dierence to the
size of your child.
WARNING: NEVER LEAVE YOUR
CHILD UNATTENDED DURING
THIS PROCESS. Remove your
child whilst the following
adjustments are being made.
