Everyday use

Our Step by Step guides show in easy to follow steps how to correctly use a restraint once it is installed in the car. Correct daily use ensures children are traveling safely every trip with a correctly adjusted and tightened harness. These are great for Grandparents or other people who use the car seats when you’re not there to help. Pop in to Kidsafe for a hard copy to be stored with the car seat for quick access.
