THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 35 • The rearward-facing infant carrier is for babies weighing up to about 20 lbs (9 kg), and one year old or more. The infant restraint must NEVER be used in the front seat of a vehicle with a front passenger airbag unless the airbag is turned off. An airbag deployment could cause severe injury or death to infants in this position. The infant carrier is held in the vehicle by the lap belt, lap/shoulder belt, or the LATCH child restraint anchorage system. • Children under one year of age should continue to ride in a rear-facing infant seat, even if they weigh more than 20 lbs (9 kg). A "convertible" child seat, one that is designed to be used either rearward-facing or forward-facing, should be used for children who are too heavy for the infant carrier, but who are too young to face forward in the vehicle. • The forward-facing child seat is for children from about 20-40 lbs (9-18 kg), and more than one year old. The child seat is held in the vehicle by the lap belt, lap/shoulder belt, or the LATCH child restraint anchorage system. • The belt-positioning booster seat is for children weighing more than 40 lbs (18 kg), but who are still too small to fit in the vehicle's seat belts properly. If the child cannot sit with knees bent over the seat cushion while the child's back is against the seat back, they should use a belt-positioning booster seat. The child and booster seat are held in the vehicle by lap/shoulder belt. (Some booster seats are equipped with a front shield and are held in the vehicle by the lap portion or lap belt.) • For additional information refer to www.seatcheck.org or call 1-866-SEATCHECK. 2
