Booster seats are for older children who have outgrown their forward-in front of car safety seats. It is best for children to ride in a harnessed seat as long as feasible, at least to 4 years of age. If your child outgrows his seat before reaching 4 years of age, consider using a seat with a harness accepted for higher weights and heights. A child has outgrown his forward-in front of seat when any one of the follow is true:
- He reaches the top weight or height acceptable for his seat with a harness. (These restrictions are listed on the seat and also included in the instruction booklet.)
- His shoulders are above the top harness slots.
- His ears have reached the top of the seat.
Booster seats are designed to raise the child up so that the lap and shoulder seat belts fit correctly. High-back and backless booster seats are presented. They do not come with harness straps but are used with the lap and shoulder seat belts in your vehicle, the same way an adult rides. Booster seats should be used until your child can correctly fit in lap and shoulder seat belts. Booster seats usually include a plastic clip or guide to help ensure the correct use of the vehicle lap and shoulder belts. See the tutoring booklet that came with the booster seat for directions on how to use the guide or clip.
