Child Restraint Systems
Rear-Facing Infant Seat
A rear-facing infant seat 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.
Forward-Facing Child Seat
A forward-facing child seat provides restraint for the child's body with the harness.
Booster Seats
A booster seat 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.
