The Hazard!

In some units there may be one or two bolts missing from the hinge of the carrier stand which can impact the stability of the stand.

If one of the identified bolts is missing the carriers could be less stable, resulting in an increased risk of the carrier tipping over when placing your child in or out of it.

What to do...

Inspect your Karinjo Child Carrier to confirm if a replacement is required:
Check if your carrier requires replacement referring to the images or here

If it does require replacement, stop using the carrier and contact your nearest Kathmandu Store to organise a replacement.
