Forward-facing child restraints
A forward-facing child seat provides
r
estraint for the child’s body with a
harness. Keep children in a forward-
facing child seat with a harness until
they reach the top height or weight
limit allowed by your child restraint’s
manufacturer.
Once your child outgrows the forward-
facing child restraint, your child is ready
for a booster seat.
Booster seats
A booster seat is a restraint designed to
impr
ove the fit of the vehicle’s seat belt
system. A booster seat positions the seat
belt so that it fits properly over the lap of
your child.
Keep your child in a booster seat until
they are big enough to sit in the seat
without a booster and still have the
seat belt fit properly. For a seat belt
to fit properly, the lap belt must lie
snugly across the upper thighs, not the
stomach. The shoulder belt should lie
snug across the shoulder and chest and
not across the neck or face. Children
under age 13 must always ride in the
rear seats and must always be properly
restrained to minimize the risk of injury.
