How is a Booster Seat used?
Using a Booster Seat is very similar to buckling yourself
into the vehicle because you are using the vehicle’s
restraint system to secure your child:
•
Read the instruction manuals for both the Booster Seat
and the vehicle before you start.
• Put the Booster in the back seat in a location with a
lap and shoulder belt.
Never use a Booster Seat with
only a lap belt, as this could cause serious injuries.
•
Base of Booster should be flat on vehicle seat.
• After the child is in the Booster, pull the lap and
shoulder belt across and buckle it. Your child is being
restrained by the vehicle’s lap and shoulder belt, so fit
of the belts are important.
•
Check that the shoulder belt lies across the middle of
the shoulder and that the lap belt is low on the hips,
just touching the thighs.
