National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the American
Academy of Pediatrics recommend rear-facing a child until he/she
is at least two years of age or reaches the rear-facing upper weight
or height limit.
Too
Loose
Tighten harness straps snugly.
A snug harness should not allow any
slack and should lie in a relatively
straight line without sagging. It
should not press on the child's flesh
or push the child's body into an
unnatural position. If the harness
webbing can be pinched together,
the harness is too loose and needs
to be tightened. Placing one finger
or two fingers under the harness
webbing is not a good way to check
for snugness.
Position the harness clip at a child's
armpit level.
The crotch strap should be snug
against a child. Choose the slot
that is closest to the child, but is
not under the child's bottom. See
special instructions in the safety seat
manual for infants weighing
10 lbs. or less.
Rear-Facing
Only install this safety seat on a
vehicle cushion that faces forward
towards the hood of the vehicle. Do
not install on a vehicle cushion that
faces to the rear or to the side of the
vehicle. And only install on vehicle
cushions with backs that lock into
place.
Children are safer in the back seat
of a vehicle. It is illegal in Virginia to
install a rear-facing safety seat in the
front seat with an active passenger-
side air bag. If the vehicle has side-
impact air bags, refer to the vehicle
owner's manual to see if the safety
seat may be installed next to the
side-impact air bag. Do not install
this safety seat using a shoulder-belt
air bag.
