• Car seat must be forward-facing in the

snugly, lays low on the child’s hip, and is
routed behind the armrest in the booster’s
belt path marked with a green label.
• Make sure vehicle seat’s shoulder belt is
centered between the child’s neck and edge of
shoulder.
• Never use a vehicle lap only seat belt across
front of child.
• DO NOT position vehicle shoulder belt under
the child’s arm or back.
• DO NOT allow child to slouch or slide down in
the booster seat.
• DO NOT position vehicle seat belt over top of
armrests.
• Vehicle seat’s headrest SHOULD NOT create a

When forward-facing, children should use the
built-in harness system for as long as possible
until they reach the maximum forward-facing
weight or height for their car seat. At that point,
children should ride in a belt-positioning booster
seat. A booster is no longer needed once the
vehicle seat belt fits properly, typically when
they reach 4 feet 9 inches (145 cm) tall and
are between ages 8-12. Be sure to check your
local and state laws, as well as AAP and NHTSA
recommendations, for car seat usage.
Vehicle Lap/Shoulder Seat Belt
Never use a vehicle lap only seat belt
across front of child.
