How to use

Before use, adjust the shoulder straps and hip belt to match the caregiver’s torso and hips, ensuring comfortable load distribution. Secure the child in the integrated seat and fasten the harness according to the child’s size so that the child is seated firmly and cannot slide downward. Use the hip belt to transfer most of the weight to the hips and tighten shoulder straps for stability. Load small items into the pockets to keep necessities within reach while maintaining balanced packing. Inspect straps and fastenings regularly and follow any manufacturer care instructions for cleaning and storage.

Recommendations

Use the carrier for toddlers who can sit unsupported and follow recommended weight and age guidelines. For longer hikes, take regular breaks, monitor the child’s comfort and hydration, and adjust straps as needed. Avoid overloading pockets to maintain safe balance and check connections before starting each walk.
