Convertible child seats can be used
either rearward-facing or
forward-facing in the vehicle.
Convertible child seats often have a
higher weight limit in the
rearward-facing direction than infant
carriers do, so they can be used
rearward-facing by children who have
outgrown their infant carrier but are
still younger than at least two years
old.
Children should remain rearward-
facing until they reach the highest
weight or height allowed by their
child seat. Both types of child restraint
systems are fixed to the car by the
lap/shoulder belt or the LATCH child
restraint anchor system. Refer to
“Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren (LATCH)” in this section.
WARNING!
• Never place a rear facing infant seat
in front of an air bag. A deploying
Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag
can cause death or serious injury to
a child 12 years or younger,
including a child in a rearward
facing infant seat.
• Only use a rearward-facing child
restraint in a vehicle with a rear
seat.
Older Children and Child
Restraints
Children who are two years old or
who have outgrown their rear-facing
child seat can ride forward-facing in
the vehicle. Forward-facing child seats
and convertible child seats used in the
forward-facing direction are for
children who are over two years old or
who have outgrown the rear-facing
weight or height limit of their
rear-facing child seat.
Children should remain in a
forward-facing child seat with a
harness for as long as possible, up to
the highest weight or height allowed
by the child seat. These child seats are
also fixed to the car by the
lap/shoulder belt or the LATCH child
restraint anchorage system. Refer to
“Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren (LATCH)” in this section.
All children whose weight or height is
above the forward-facing limit for the
child seat should use a belt-
positioning booster seat until the
vehicle’s seat belts fit properly. If the
child cannot sit with knees bent over
the vehicle’s seat cushion while the
back is against the seatback, they
should use a belt-positioning booster
seat.
The child and belt-positioning booster
seat are fixed to the car by the
lap/shoulder belt.
Children Too Large for Booster
Seats
Children who are large enough to
wear the shoulder belt comfortably
and whose legs are long enough to
bend over the front of the seat when
their back is against the seatback
should use the lap/shoulder belt in a
rear seat.
• Make sure that the child is upright in
the seat.
• The lap portion should be low on
the hips and as snug as possible.
• Check belt fit periodically. A child’s
squirming or slouching can move the
belt out of position.
• If the shoulder belt contacts the face
or neck, move the child closer to the
center of the vehicle. Never allow a
child to put the shoulder belt under
an arm or behind their back.
