What is the Suitable Age Range for Child Safety Seats?
1 Answers
Child safety seats are suitable for children aged 0-12 years with a weight under 36 kilograms. Based on different age groups, child safety seats are designed in the following categories: 1. Infant carrier seats. Suitable for newborns to 15-month-old babies (or babies weighing between 2.2 kg to 13 kg). These child safety seats usually come with a rocking base and a handle, functioning as a portable carrier. 2. Convertible safety seats. Suitable for newborns to 4-year-old children (or children weighing between 2.2 kg to 18 kg). While these seats lack features like rocking, portability, or compatibility with strollers, they can be securely installed in vehicles for long-term use. 3. Combination safety seats. Suitable for children aged 1 to 12 years (or children weighing between 9 kg to 36 kg). They serve as dedicated seats for toddlers (aged 1 to 4) and can also be converted to use the vehicle's adult seat belts by removing the built-in harness.
