TYPES
Convertible or infant-only seats have babies facing the back of the vehicle at first. As they get bigger, they move to seats that are forward-facing, then to boost seats.
Young children and babies can use this. Most people can work from birth and weigh as much as 65 lbs. Some are suitable for even larger kids. They can be employed either rear- or forward-facing, depending on the dimensions and weight of the child. Due to their ability to turn from booster to front-facing to rear-facing with the removal of the harness, some convertible seats are referred to as “all-in-one.”
Kids and newborns benefited most from this. Only rear-facing seats are placed in them. Infant-only seats, based on the model, are appropriate for kids from birth until they weigh roughly 35 lbs. When the infant outgrows the seat, you’ll have to use another one. They are practical since, when not used in the automobile, they double as carriers, chairs, or rockers.
Where Should You Place the Car Seat?
The back middle seat of the automobile is the safest spot for infants and young children, even if you have the proper car seat. Additionally, the back window seats can accommodate a car seat if necessary. In a vehicle with airbags, never install any form of infant or child car seat in the front seat. The infant could suffer fatal or serious injuries if the airbag opens.
Disable the airbag and move the seat as far back as it will go if you are forced to put a kid in the front seat (for example, if your vehicle only has two seats or if the car seat won’t work in the back seat).
