Securing Your Child
Failure to properly position and
adjust the shoulder straps to
your child’s size increases the
risk of serious injury or death
in the event of a sharp turn,
sudden stop or crash.
•
The shoulder straps must be
below the top of the child’s
shoulders.
• The restraint harness must be
snugly adjusted to your child.
⚠WARNING⚠

It is important to check the position of the
shoulder straps periodically. The straps
must be properly positioned on your child’s
shoulders and thighs (Photo A). Shoulder

In addition to the weight and height requirements, your child must also meet
the shoulder and harness requirements. As each child’s body is different,
proper fit is critical to ensure the safety of your child. Please carefully follow
the instructions and refer to the criteria set forth in this section for more
information about how your child should fit in the car seat. For smaller
newborns, including lower birth weight babies, Orbit Baby’s Lower Birth
Weight Fit Kit may improve the fit for such children. The Lower Birth Weight
Fit Kit is available free of charge. Please contact [email protected] for
