An infant seat fitted with the seat belt. The lap belt goes over the top of the seat and the diagonal belt wraps around the back. In seats like this it is easier the put the baby in the seat before installing the seat in the car.

The diagonal belt goes through a blue guide on the back of the seat.

In some infant car seats the carry handle has to go all the way forward above the baby's feet. This acts as an anti-rebound bar and is an important safety feature.

In this one the carry handle must be in the upright position in the car.

Always follow your seat's instructions, the sticker on the side of the seat tells you which path the seat belt should follow and which position the handle should be in.

The pictures on this website show installation methods for the most common types of car seats, and we have used many different ones. But car seats vary and these pictures should not be used as a replacement for the manufacturers' instructions. It is very important that you read the user manual carefully and only install your seat according to its own specific instructions.
