How do you adjust the Liing's shoulder harness straps?

As your child grows, you will need to change the Shoulder Harness Slot position. The Shoulder Harness Straps MUST be through the Shoulder Harness Slots at or just below and closest to the child’s shoulders. NEVER use with Shoulder Harness Straps positioned through Shoulder Harness Slots above the top of the child’s shoulders.

Select the Correct Shoulder Harness Slot 

Step 1
Place the child in the Carrier.

Step 2
Check to see which is the appropriate Shoulder Harness Slot that fits the child. Choose the Slots at or just below and closest to the child’s shoulders.

NOTE: If using the Newborn Support Headrest, you will need to pull it forward to expose the Shoulder Harness Slots in the Carrier to check the height of Harness Slots.

Unthread the Shoulder Harness

Step 1
Buckle the Harness and close the Chest Clip to prevent the Shoulder Harness Straps from twisting.

Step 2
Loosen the Harness:

• While pressing down on Harness Adjuster Tab, pull out on Shoulder Harness Straps to loosen Harness. The Harness Adjuster Tab is accessible through the slot sewn into the fabric between the Harness Adjuster Strap and the Crotch Strap.

Step 3
Turn Carrier over and detach the loop at the end of each Shoulder Harness Strap by sliding Strap out through the slot in Metal Harness Plate.

Step 4
From front of Carrier, pull Shoulder Harness Straps out of Carrier Seat Back.

Rethread the Shoulder Harness

Step 1
If using with the Newborn Support System Headrest:

• Insert the Shoulder Harness Straps through the Harness Slots in the Headrest, ensuring that the Straps are not twisted.

• From front of Carrier, insert the Shoulder Harness Straps through the chosen Shoulder Harness Slots in the Carrier Seat Back, ensuring that the Straps are not twisted.

If using without the Newborn Support System Headrest:

• From front of Carrier, insert the Shoulder Harness Straps through the chosen Shoulder Harness Slots in the Carrier Seat Back, ensuring that the Straps are not twisted.

Step 2
Re-attach the Harness:

• Route Shoulder Harness Straps and Harness Adjuster Strap between Base Attachment Bars and bottom of Carrier.

• Hold the silver Metal Harness Plate straight up ensuring there are no twists in the Harness Adjuster Strap, and slide the loop end of each Shoulder Harness Strap through the slot in the Metal Harness Plate, ensuring that each Strap is completely inside the slot.

Step 3
Check that both Shoulder Harness Straps and the Harness Adjuster Strap are routed between the Base Attachment Bars and the bottom of the Carrier.
