Shoulder belt routing while in
booster mode
While the seat is used in
booster mode the shoulder
belt must be routed over the
child’s shoulder.
The belt must pass under the
head rest, between the head
rest and the seat as long as
the child’s shoulders are at or
below the opening between
the head rest and shell.
If the child’s
shoulders are high
enough that routing
the shoulder belt
under the head rest
causes the belt to be
pulled down the back
side of the child’s
shoulder (before
passing through the
head rest), the belt
should not be routed
between the seat and
the head rest.
If the shoulder height causes
the belt to route behind
the back and the top of the
ears are still at or below
the top of the head rest,
the shoulder belt should be
routed on top of the head
rest.
