Important Harness Adjustments
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics :
All infants should ride rear-facing until they have reached at least 1 year
of age and weigh at least 9.1 kg (20 lbs). That means that if your infant
reaches 9.1 kg (20 lbs) before her first birthday, she should remain rear-
facing at least until she turns 1 year old. It is best for children to ride rear-
facing to the highest weight or height allowed by the manufacturer.
Rear-Facing
Weight 2.3 – 13.6 kg (5 – 30 lbs).
Only use rear-facing with children :
•
who weigh between 2.3 – 13.6 kg (5 – 30 lbs)
–
•
whose height is between 55.9
and
•
when the top of the child's head is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or
more below the top of the child seat shell (Fig. A) and
•
when the harness straps are located in slots at or below the child's shoulders (Fig. A)
I f the child cannot be secured within these requirements because the
child exceeds height or weight requirements, review the forward-
facing guidelines on page 7.
If the child cannot be snugly secured within these requirements
because the child is too small, selection of a different child seat (such
as an infant carrier) may be required.
IMPORTANT:
See How to Adjust Harness Slot Height on page 31.
