Toddlers and Preschoolers
Once they are facing forward, children should use a
forward-facing car seat with a harness for as long
as possible, until they reach the height and weight
limits for their seats.
School-Aged Children
Once they have outgrown their forward-facing car
seat, children should use a belt-positioning booster
seat until the vehicle’s lap and shoulder seat belt
fi ts properly. This is often when they have reached
at least 4 feet 9 inches in height and are 8 to 12
years old.
Older Children
All children younger than 13 years should be
restrained in the rear seats of vehicles for optimal
protection.
REAR-FACING
You must follow the weight
and height ranges called out
in the instruction manual that
came with your compatible
car seat.
If your child does not meet the criteria in the car
seat instruction manual,
do not
use this base or
the car seat.
