Frequently Asked Questions

When should I switch from a baby seat to a car seat?

You should switch from a baby carrier to a car seat when your child either reaches the upper weight or height limit for the baby carrier (usually around 9-12 months) or when the child's head reaches the edge of the baby carrier. It is important that the child is still in a rear-facing car seat, as it is the safest way for small children to ride.

What does Swedish law say about car seat placement in the car?

In general, the middle seat in the back is considered the safest place for a car seat, as it provides the greatest distance from the sides of the car—potential collision zones. However, it’s not always possible to install a car seat there due to factors like seat size or the lack of a seatbelt or ISOFIX anchors.

That means there’s no universal answer to where a rear-facing car seat should be placed, since it can vary depending on the car model. According to the Swedish National Society for Road Safety (NTF), both the front and rear seats are equally safe in terms of crash protection (read more on NTF’s website here).

Keep in mind, however, that some rear-facing car seats are not approved for installation in the back seat. If the car seat is installed in the front passenger seat, any airbag in front of the seat must be deactivated.

How long does my child have to sit rear-facing before we switch to a forward-facing car seat?

Pediatricians and safety experts recommend that children sit rear-facing for as long as possible, preferably up to the age of 6–7. Rear-facing car seats provide the best protection in the event of a collision, as they distribute the force across the child's body and protect the head, neck and spine. This is especially important for younger children, whose heads are proportionally larger and heavier compared to the rest of their bodies.

When is it time to change from a car seat to a booster seat?

You should switch from a car seat to a booster seat when your child has outgrown the car seat or has reached the upper height or weight limit for the car seat.

When changing to a booster seat, it is important that the child's knees can bend comfortably at the edge of the seat. In addition, the child must be large enough for the car's belt to fit correctly over the body in the booster seat.

How do I make sure the belt fits correctly over the child's body?

The seat belt should go over the child's hip bone, not the stomach, and the diagonal belt should go over the child's shoulder and chest, not across the neck. If the belt is not fitted correctly, there is a risk that the child will be injured in a collision. Check that the belt is tight and not twisted.

Should the booster seat have a backrest, or will a booster cushion suffice?

Booster seats with backrests are recommended as they provide extra support for the child's head, neck and back as well as better protection in side collisions.

What is the correct position for the headrest of the car seat?

The child car seat's headrest should be adjusted so that it sits just above the child's shoulders, with enough space to support the head properly in the event of a collision. If the head support is too high or too low, the child does not receive optimal protection for the head and neck.
