A
rear-facing infant seat
(B)
provides restraint with the
seating surface against the back of the infant. The
harness system holds the infant in place and, in a crash,
acts to keep the infant positioned in the restraint.
A
forward-facing child seat
(C-E)
provides restraint for
the child’s body with the harness and also sometimes
with surfaces such as T-shaped
or
shelf-like shields.
