Infant car seats are typically good for six to ten years from the date of manufacture. Always check the specific expiration label provided by the manufacturer to ensure safety and compliance.
Why do infant car seats expire?
Infant car seats expire due to material degradation over time and evolving safety standards. Expiration ensures that car seats meet current safety regulations and provide optimal protection.
Do infant car seats need a base?
Infant car seats often come with a base for convenient installation, but they can be used without a base with proper seat belt installation. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for safe use.
When do you switch car seats for an infant?
Switch car seats when your infant exceeds the height or weight limit of their current seat, or around age one. Transition to a convertible car seat for extended rear-facing use.
What is the weight limit on infant car seats?
The weight limit on infant car seats generally ranges from 22 to 35 pounds, depending on the model. Always check your specific car seat’s manual for accurate weight capacity.
