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) • and
whose height is between 55.9•
– 76.2 cm (22 – 30 inches)
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)•
If 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.
