Correct answer
According to height and weight, the restraint’s limits and vehicle compatibility.
Choose an approved restraint suitable for the child’s height and weight, within the manufacturer’s limits, and compatible with the vehicle. R129 classifies by height and relevant weight limits must be respected; previously acquired R44 seats classify by weight. Follow instructions for orientation and fitting. Age alone and buying an oversized seat to last longer are insufficient criteria. Seats and vehicles do not all have the same attachment systems.
