This is a “Universal” child restraint when installed using the 3-point vehicle seat
belt only. It is approved to the requirements of the European Standard for Child
Safety Seat Equipment under Regulation No. 44, 04 series of amendments, for
general use in vehicles and it will fit most, but not all, car seats.
A correct fit is likely if the vehicle manufacturer has declared in the vehicle
handbook that the vehicle is capable of accepting a “Universal” child restraint for
this age group.
This child restraint has been classified as “Universal” under more stringent
conditions than those which applied to earlier designs which do not carry this
notice.
If in doubt, consult either the child restraint manufacturer or the retailer.
! Only suitable for use in the listed vehicles fitted with 3-point with retractor safety-
belts, approved to ECE Regulation No. 16 or other equivalent standards.
The child restraint IS CERTIFIED for use in the following classes of vehicles ONLY:
multi-purpose passenger vehicles, passenger cars, and trucks. Harmony Juvenile
Products has also validated compliance through independent laboratory testing.
This restraint is NOT CERTIFIED for aircraft use.
This child restraint must NOT be used in homes, boats, buses, motorcycles, motor
homes, or any other vehicles that have non-forward-facing seats, missing seat
belts, or whose seat belts do not meet the requirements of this child restraint.

! ENSURE the harness height is correct for your child’s size. Verify often (4).
1. Loosen harness system by pushing the up-front metal harness adjuster at the front
of the seat just above the adjustment strap (under the fabric) and by
simultaneously pulling the chest harness straps towards you (5).
TIP: Pull on the harness straps. DO NOT pull on the shoulder
pads as they are locked in place.
2. Face
 the rear of the child restraint and remove the harness straps from the
splitter plate (see “Removing/installing harness”) (6).
3. G
 ently pull the straps out from the front harness slots.
4. S
 elect the proper harness slot height and feed the straps (harness and
shoulder pads) back through (7). Ensure that the harness straps

of your child’s head is above the top of the child restraint’s
headrest at its maximum height (B). B
5. Reattach the harness straps to the metal splitter plate.
REMEMBER to check the shoulder straps position frequently
and move them to the next position when necessary. The
harness straps must be in the height position even with or
just above the shoulders. The harness pads and crotch pads

 se ONLY the vehicle’s 3-point lap-and-shoulder belt system when restraining
this child restraint to the vehicle (10). DO NOT use this child restraint with a
2-point vehicle belt (11). Your child would be seriously injured in the event of
a crash.
1. Place the child restraint flush against a forward-facing vehicle seat. The vehicle
seat must be equipped with a 3-point lap-and-shoulder belt. The child
restraint must be level, stable and not rock side-to-side.
2. Thread the shoulder portion of the vehicle seat belt into the headrest shoulder
belt guide on the same side as the seat belt retractor (12).
3. O pen harness system and lift insert cushion. Thread the lap portion of the
vehicle’s seat belt under the armrest on the same side as the seat belt
retractor (12). Replace insert cushion.
4. From behind the child restraint, pass both the lap and shoulder portions
around the rear of the seat and back through the opening (12) on the opposite
side of the seat as indicated (13). Take both portions of the vehicle seat belt
and pass them under the armrest of the child restraint on the same side as
the seat belt buckle (14).
5. Buckle the vehicle seat belt. Listen for an audible “click” (14). The vehicle seat
belt MUST NOT be twisted.
6. If your vehicle is equipped with a ELR/ALR switchable seat belt retractor system,
we recommend that you pull out the full length of the vehicle seat belt (until you
cannot pull out any more slack). This locks the retractor. If not equipped with
switchable ELR/ALR retractor, continue with step #7.
7. Tighten vehicle seat belt by placing your knee on the child restraint base and
by using your full weight to push the child restraint down as you simultaneously
release the extra belt length until seat belt is taught and has no slack (15, 16).
Manually pull out of all of the slack from the Lap portion (15, 16) and then
feed the shoulder portion back into the retractor.
8. While holding the seat belt as retracted as possible, attach the locking clip
around both lap and shoulder belts once vehicle seat belt is adjusted and
tightened (17, 18).

For more information on how to tighten the seat belt for your seat belt system, see
your vehicle owner’s manual.

! Warning!
FAILURE TO FASTEN AND TIGHTEN THE HARNESS SYSTEM CORRECTLY MAY
CAUSE THE CHILD TO BE EJECTED FROM THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM IN CASE
OF A SHARP TURN, SUDDEN STOP OR CRASH CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY
OR DEATH. In a crash, the child restraint will provide no protection for your child
unless the harness straps are properly secured. Do not mistake comfort for safety.

snug strap is one with no slack. It should not press on the child’s flesh or cause
your child’s body to be in an unnatural position. You should only be able to slide
one finger between the shoulder straps and the child’s shoulder.
! Avoid unnecessary bulky clothing.
s e c ur i n g c h i l d i n c h i l d re s t r a i n t

NOT INSTALL OR USE THIS Child restraint UNTIL YOU READ AND
UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL AND IN YOUR VEHICLE
OWNER’S MANUAL.
NO child restraint CAN GUARANTEE PROTECTION WHEN THE VEHICLE
IS SERIOUSLY IMPACTED. However, when correctly installed, a child restraint
will substantially improve the chances for survival and reduce the risk of serious
injury in most crashes.
Carefully follow the instructions in this manual and in your vehicle owner’s
manual. If there is a discrepancy between the two, the vehicle owner’s manual
must take precedence with regards to seat belts and/or airbags.

the vehicle does not move until everyone is buckled up. MAKE NO EXCEPTIONS.
! Harmony Juvenile Products advises against loaning or passing along a child
restraint. DO NOT USE A SECOND-HAND CHILD RESTRAINT or a child
restraint whose history you do not know.
! When disposing a child restraint system, ensure to dispose of the unit in a way

a garage sale, etc.).
! Store the child restraint in a safe place when not in use. DO NOT place heavy
objects on top of the child restraint while in storage.
! Do not remove any stickers or warnings as they contain important information.

instructions and marked in the child restraint.
! DO NOT allow others to install or use this child restraint unless they read and
understand all the instructions and labels.
! DO NOT GIVE THIS child restraint to someone else without also giving

! The rigid items and plastic parts of a child restraint shall be so located and
installed that they are not liable, during everyday use of the vehicle, to become
trapped by a movable seat or in a door of the vehicle.
! DO NOT leave folding vehicle seats unlatched. In the event of a sharp turn,
sudden stop or crash, a loose seat back could prevent the child restraint from
protecting the child as well as it should.
! The vehicle front seat headrest that the child faces while in the child restraint
should be in its lowest position. ENSURE that the back of the vehicle seat facing
the child is completely padded with no hard or potentially harmful objects.
! It is recommended that any luggage or other objects liable to cause injuries
in the event of a collision shall be properly secured. In the event of a sharp
turn, sudden stop or crash, loose objects will keep moving, potentially causing
serious injuries.
! The child restraint shall not be used without the cover. It MUST always be used
with the fabric cover provided by the manufacturer.
! The seat cover should not be replaced with any other than the one recommended
by the manufacturer, because the cover constitutes an integral part of the
restraint performance.

child. ALWAYS touch the surface of any metal or plastic parts before putting
your child in the child restraint. Cover the child restraint with a towel or blanket

belts (lap-belt only or shoulder-belt only). Your child would be seriously injured
in the event of a crash.
! DO NOT use this child restraint if it can’t be properly installed. It is possible that
your vehicle has no suitable seating position for this child restraint due to seat
belt type and/or airbag system. Read and follow these instructions, and your
vehicle owner’s manual carefully.
