Your child should be transported facing
rearward in the car as long as possible.
Change the sy stem when the height of the
child is such that the head ex tends over the
top of the system and is no longer
supported at ey e level. The child's cervical
vertebrae are still very weak. In the event of
an accident, they are subjected to less
stress in the sem i-prone rea rw ard position
than w hen upright.
