What is the purpose of the shoulder straps? - Burton Camping, Backpacking & Hiking

The sternum strap only purpose provides stability and keeps the shoulder straps in place.

The Bugaboo's like 99% of all strollers have a 5 point harness. Two shoulder straps Two Lap straps and a center strap with the main body of the buckles. 2 year olds become little Houdini's pulling the shoulder straps off in both strollers and car seats. There are small buckle units you can buy that lock the two shoulder straps at chest height these are excellent at keeping kids in their place. Ask any nursery supply shop they should have them.

Hi
Undo the popper on the shoulder harness pad. Slide the pad down the length of the shoulder harness strap.
Unhook the metal D ring.
Feed the short length, low down anchor point back in behind the seat fabric. Bring the longer length, higher up anchor point out at the desired height.
Re-attach the D ring. Adjust the harness straps accordingly.
Slide harness pad back up shoulder harness and re-attach popper.

Press and hold down the harness release button. With your other hand below the chest pads, pull the shoulder straps forward as far as possible. With the Eclipse Si fully reclined, open the seat-belt guard at the back of the shell. Pull the yoke out from behind the seat and unhook both shoulder straps. Pull the cover from the top of the seat so that you can see the slots in the seat shell. Pull each shoulder strap and chest pad strap forward and towards the centre of the shell, easing the metal tab and straps through the slot. Then thread them through to the front of the cover. Unfasten the buckle and remove the comfort pad. Gently pull the cover off the seat, easing the shoulder straps, chest pads, harness buckle and adjuster strap through the slots in the cover.

I guess you have pulled the harness adjuster strap tight (between the legs on the front edge of the seat) and are still left with slack shoulder harness straps. It may mean you need to remove the seat and check the harness straps are going thru the shoulder slots in the seat, then they need to go up and over the the metal shoulder rod before going down to connect onto the metal spreader plate
