How to Install a Child Safety Seat

It is estimated that anywhere from 56 to 91 percent of parents do not install their child safety seat correctly. Your child will not have sufficient protection if the child safety seat is not installed the right way. First and foremost, you should read the car seat manual and owner's manual of your vehicle. You also need to put your child safety seat in the right place. All car seats should be placed in the back. It is also best for you to put the car seat in the middle seat.

Most vehicles today have a LATCH System, which is specifically designed to make it easier for parents to install a car seat. Keep in mind that you cannot use the Latch and seat belt together. Using both of them together does not make your child safer. Test drive a Ford vehicle today at Riverhead Ford in Riverhead, NY.
