Booster seats should be used until you can answer
YES to ALL of these questions:
• Can the child sit all

the way back against
the vehicle seat back
with knees bent
comfortably at the
edge of the seat
without slouching?

• Does the lap belt rest low across the hips?
• Is the shoulder belt centered on the shoulder and

chest?

• Can the child stay seated like this for the whole

trip?

Types of booster seats

There are two types of belt-positioning booster
seats:
• Those that are

backless.

If your backless
booster seat has a
removable shield,
remove the shield
and use the
lap/shoulder belt. If a
seating position has a low seat back and no head
restraint, a backless booster seat may place your
child’s head (top of ear level) above the top of the
seat. In this case, move the backless booster to
another seating position with a higher seat back
and lap/shoulder belts.
