Child Restraint Systems
A rear-facing infant seat (A) provides restraint with the seating surface against the back of the infant.
The harness system holds the infant in place and, in a crash, acts to keep the infant positioned in the restraint.
A forward-facing child seat (B) provides restraint for the child’s body with the harness.
A booster seat (C-D) is a child restraint designed to improve the fit of the vehicle’s safety belt system.
A booster seat can also help a child to see out the window.
