Question RadianRXT webbing path question

lisa_from_Toronto · Jan 21, 2012

Hi there!

I just got my DS's brand new 2012 Radian RXT and am stumped by a sticker on the bottom of the seat. (see pic below)
It *seems* to state that the webbing needs to go over the bar, but it didn't come like that from the box. The second pic shows how the webbing is currently routed. Could anyone please tell me if it's correct as is, or if it needs to go over one of the bars shown in the picture? (Note: the lower horizontal bar is the recline adjustment bar, I believe.)

Thanks in advance!

It's right the way it is. When the seat is sitting upright, the webbing is "over" the bar

Thanks, featherhead! That is SO confusing!! So "over" doesn't mean threaded over one bar and under the other...just flush with the plastic underside of the seat? The sticker is definitely misleading. Thanks very much for clarifying!

That sticker is very very misleading because the only way you can see that bar is to have the seat turned on it's side or upside down - and when looked at from that perspective, over is actually under. I actually really puzzled as to why they were saying over when it was clearly under in the picture.

I have to think that sticker may cause more misuse than prevent it with the way it's worded...

yikes thanks for posting this question.. I had to wash my cover and when I went to rethread the strap apparently I did it wrong. will pull it out and rethread right now.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one that has these questions! I may send this feedback to Diono so they are aware the webbing path sticker is unclear! Thanks to all for your advice/input/feedback!

I rerouted the webbing as per the sticker because I thought it came the wrong way but then I was unable to tighten or loosen the straps which makes it unsafe if I can't adjust it without removing the entire seat every time.

I hopersonally diono sorts out that confusing sticker asap
