01 Safety 01 Convertible seats Securing a convertible seat with a seat belt WARNING • A small child's head represents a considerable part of its total weight and its neck is still very weak. Volvo recommends that children up to age 4 travel, properly restrained, facing rearward. In addition, Volvo recommends that children should ride rearward facing, properly restrained, as long as possible. Convertible child seats should be installed in the rear seat only. A rear-facing convertible seat should not be positioned behind the driver's seat unless there is adequate space for safe installation.
