Child passenger safety is a priority for SGI.
We know installing a child restraint is complicated. Having it done by a trained technician is really the surest way to know you're doing it properly.
We now offer three services to have your car seats checked:
If you're trying to install a child car seat on your own, please keep the following information in mind.
For the best fit in any vehicle, the seatbelt must hold the child
restraint firmly in place. To make it tight, push the child restraint
down while you tighten the belt around it. It is best if there is
minimal movement from side to side and front to back.
The right child restraint is more dependent on the child’s
size than their age. However, a child should remain rear facing
until one year of age. Check your manufacturer's instructions to
ensure your seat will accommodate your child's weight.
Check Finding the Right Fit
for tips on selecting the right child restraint for your child.
It’s absolutely necessary that you read the instructions that
come with your child restraint to make sure it’s properly
installed and the right fit for your child. It’s also helpful
to read your vehicle owner’s manual, and to look for instruction
labels on your vehicle’s sun visor or seatbelts to ensure
the child restraint is in your vehicle properly.
