IMPORTANT! READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
USER MANUAL
The Kangaroo baby carrier lets you carry your child in three positions from
birth until the baby weighs 15 kilos, strengthening the mother-child bond.
Baby carrier with careful design right down to the last detail:
- The design is comfortable for the adult to use as it spreads the weight out thanks to the dorsal belt, meaning the weight is not all concentrated on the back as with a traditional backpack.
- It is fitted with a fully adjustable support for the baby’s neck. This support protects the baby while the adult is walking. Remember that for the first few months the baby cannot support his head by himself. This support can also be folded when the baby is in the facing forwards position giving the child better visibility.
- The position of the opening for the baby’s legs (frog leg position), prevents problems of hip development and maturation (congenital hip dislocation).
- Thanks to the full opening, it is very easy to get the child out to change his position at any time.
Versatility of the baby carrier
osition 1. (See figure 1.1; position 1, page 2): From 0 to 5 months: In order
to prevent problems in the development of the hips, known as hip dislocation
or dysplasia, we recommend that the inner separator of the baby carrier is
fastened at the front, so that the baby’s legs have to be open wider, thereby
preventing displacement outwards of the femur head in the baby’s first few
months. This will protect the child from possible malformations and will aid
correct maturation and fit of the hip and f e m u r . Position 2. (See
figure 1.2; position 2, page 2): From 5 months upwards: Generally, the inner
separator of the baby carrier can now be fastened at the back as the baby’s
hips have now reached sufficient maturation. The baby’s legs can now be
positioned closer together, without exposing the baby to risk of hip
malformation.

Instructions for putting the baby carrier on (See figure 3)
On the adult: Pass your head between the fastening straps so that the
straps rest correctly on your shoulders and the lumbar safety cross is on your
back. Fig. 3.1 and 3.2. Adjust the height of the back straps by
pulling them until they fit correctly. Fig. 3.2. Lastly, fit the
lower back strap around you waist and use the Velcro belt to fasten it snugly.
Fasten it securely with the safety buckle clip. Fig 3.3
With the baby:
Placing the baby in the carrier facing you:
You can now position your baby in the baby carrier. Open the baby carrier
loosening the adjustment straps so you can put the baby in easily. See figure
3.4. With the baby held securely against your chest, position his legs
carefully, making sure that they both pass through the correct holes and
fasten the button on the leg adjustment strap (this button should always be
fastened when the baby weighs between 3.5 and 4.5 kg.) Fig. 3.7. Hold the
baby securely against you until the baby carrier has been correctly fastened.
Make sure that the child is sitting straddling the seat and check that his
arms come out through the side holes. While supporting the back of the baby’s
neck with one hand, use your other hand to adjust the neck support straps
(Fig. 3.8). Lastly, fasten the front fastening clips. Fig. 3.9.
They will click when fastened correctly. When the height is correct and the
baby is sitting comfortably your chin should touch the top of the baby’s head.
Placing the baby in the carrier facing outwards (facing forwards)
When your baby can fully support his head by himself, it’s time for him to explore! The forwards facing position lets the baby discover the best of both worlds, as he is still held by you but he can also see everything that’s going on around him. With the adult already wearing the baby carrier, open the carrier loosening the adjustment straps (fig. 3.4). Loosen the neck support straps until the support is completely stretched out, fold and fasten the neck support with the clip button. (fig. 3.10) Position the separator as appropriate for the baby’s age. (Check the versatility of the baby carrier section of this manual) Pick the baby up and place him in the carrier. With the baby’s back resting against
your chest, carefully slide the baby into the baby carrier so his face is
looking outwards. (fig. 3.11). For the baby’s safety ask another person to
help you if necessary. Make sure that the baby’s legs both go through the
right holes. Fasten the leg adjustment strap if necessary (fig. 3.7).
Lastly, adjust and fasten the front fastening buttons (fig. 3.9). The baby
should not be tilted forwards. (Note: Make sure that the child is sitting
straddling the seat and check that his arms come out through the side holes.
See fig. 3.7 again. 1
Placing the baby in the baby carrier worn on the back:
Before placing the baby in the baby carrier, make sure that all the securing
systems are correctly fastened. Check them and adjust them to fit your body
before placing the baby in the carrier. Get help from another person to place
the baby in and out of the baby carrier. Once the baby is in the baby carrier
make sure that he is correctly secured before using the product.
How to switch from one position to another
To switch from one position to another, take the child out of the carrier by
first releasing the chest fastening straps gently pressing the sides of the
clip, unfasten the neck support and the leg adjustment strap. When the baby
carrier is fully open, place it in the appropriate position for you and your
baby making sure to always adjust the important parts for your child’s safety:
- Neck support or face area (depending on the position). Make sure that the baby’s face is not pressed so tightly against your body or the neck support that no air passes through, exposing him to the possible risk of suffocation. The headrest should always be used in the back position if the baby weighs between 3.5 and 4.5 kg.
- Adjust the leg measurements if the baby weighs between 3.5 and 4 kg. -Fasten the baby carrier closing the front adjustment clips.
- Adjust all the straps to suit the height and weight of your child.
- Check that the chest fastening straps are securely fastened. Made in China
