securely.

child by adjusting the Sliders (D) located on allShoulder
Straps, Waist Straps and Crotch Strap.The harness
should be snugly tted to the baby’s body, tight enough
so that the baby cannot wriggle itself free of the straps
but loose enough so as not to cause the baby any
discomfort.
TO OPEN THE HARNESS:
1.Release the Buckle Prongs – Squeeze on the top and
bottom prongs simultaneously and pull apart from the
Buckle Housing.
This process may be difcult as your buckle system has
