All the children under the age of 12 should be ideally placed in the rear seat of the cars. If at all the kids need to be seated in the front seat, it is better to disable the airbag of the car seat for their safety.

  • The baby car seat is better to be tied tightly with the original seatbelt of the car to avoid it’s slipping out due to a violent jerking. In case of the absence of any anchor below the car seat for attaching the baby car seat, the seatbelt should be locked securely to keep the baby seat in the perfect position.
  • It is better to check the secure fastening of the baby car seat, every time the parents are going to ride the car with their babies. The attachment straps may be tightened for to ensure the safety of the child.
  •  The harness of baby car seat should be tied in a flat position so that the baby is not hurt by any knot or twist on the tethering fabric. It should not be too tightly fastened that may create trouble for the child to breathe freely.
  • The chest clips of the harness should be carefully secured under the armpits of the baby so that he/she is not hurt by these clips in any way.
