How to Install a Graco Backless TurboBooster
The NHSTA recommends that you use a booster seat on your child until he is at least eight years old or 4 feet 9 inches tall. A booster seat raises your child so that your vehicle's lap belt fits his properly, and can be used once your child outgrows his forward-facing car seat, or when he is at least 40 lbs. and 4 years old. The Graco Backless TurboBooster has height-adjustable armrests, a cushioned seat and two cupholders. You can install the Backless TurboBooster in any rear vehicle seat with a combination shoulder/lap belt.
