Types of Booster Seats You Can Use

HIGH-BACK BELT-POSITIONING BOOSTER SEATS
Two types of high-back belt-positioning booster seats are available. Both types “boost” your child up so the vehicle safety belt fits better.

  1. One type provides head and neck support for your child if your vehicle seat back does not have a head rest. It must be used with the vehicle’s lap/shoulder belt, never with the lap belt only.
2

  1. The other, a combination seat, converts from a forward-facing toddler seat to a booster seat and comes equipped with a harness. This type can be used as a forward-facing toddler seat when your child is age 1 and at least 20 pounds to about age 4 and 40 pounds. When your child outgrows the toddler seat, remove the harness and use the seat as a booster seat with the vehicle’s lap/shoulder belt.

NO-BACK BELT-POSITIONING BOOSTER SEAT

  1. This type also “boosts” your child up so the vehicle safety belt fits better. This booster seat is used with a lap/shoulder belt. It should only be used in vehicles with built-in head rests.
All booster seats are required by law to comply with the same safety standards as child safety seats.
Your booster seat must have a label stating that it meets Federal motor vehicle safety standards.
