• When using a rear facing infant seat, recline the car seat to keep the
baby's head from dropping forward. Put the infant car seat carrying
handle down.
• Rolled towels or rolled receiving blankets can be placed along the sides
of the child for extra support. Never place padding under or behind the
baby.
• The child should not have a heavy coat on under the straps of the harness.
If extra warmth is needed, use a blanket over the seat.
