8-A Choosing Vehicle Seat Location
Review your vehicle owner's manual for seating locations.
The best seating location for this car seat is one that:
• Is recommended by your vehicle owner's manual, and
• Results in a secure installation of this car seat
According to accident statistics, the safest place
for your child in any vehicle is the back seat. The
center of the back seat can be the safest during
a possible side impact.
Some vehicles have specific requirements for where the car seat can be
installed, so be sure to check your vehicle owner's manual for available
seating positions, if any. For example, sometimes the center rear seat has
a lap belt only vehicle seat belt, which cannot be used when this car seat
is in Booster mode.
