Infant And Child Restraints
Safety experts recommend that children ride rear-facing in the vehicle until they are two years old
or until they reach either the height or weight limit of their rear-facing child restraint. Two types of
child restraints can be used rear-facing: infant carriers and convertible child seats.
The infant carrier is only used rear-facing in the vehicle. It is recommended for children from birth
until they reach the weight or height limit of the infant carrier. Convertible child seats can be used
either rear-facing or forward-facing in the vehicle. Convertible child seats often have a higher weight
limit in the rear-facing direction than infant carriers do, so they can be used rear-facing by children
who have outgrown their infant carrier but are still less than at least two years old. Children should
remain rear-facing until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by their convertible child
seat.
WARNING!
•
Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying passenger front
air bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger, including a child in
a rear-facing child restraint.
•
Only use a rear-facing child restraint in a vehicle with a rear seat.
