WARNINGS: Failure to fasten and tighten the harness
system correctly can result in serious injury or death.
DO NOT put snowsuits or bulky garments
on your infant when placing them in the
car bed.
Bulky clothing can prevent the harness
straps from being tightened properly.
To keep infant warm, buckle your infant
in the car bed and place a blanket around
the infant or place the infant’s coat on
backwards after securing infant in the car bed. Make sure
blanket or coat does not cover the infant’s face in any way.
Failure to follow these steps can result in serious injury or
death.
To Remove Infant From Car Bed
1. Unbuckle Harness
2. Move Harness Away
3. Remove Infant
1. Locate Buckle Strap
Adjustment Slides on
the Bottom of the Shell
2. Unlace Free End of
Buckle Strap from
Adjustment Slides
3. To Shorten
Move the adjustment slides

Snug harness straps should not allow any slack. They lie in a
relatively straight line without sagging. They do not press on
the infant’s flesh or push the infant’s body into an unnatural
position.
To adjust the buckle, see pages 6-7.
To adjust the harness straps, see pages 8-9.
