Carpinteria and Summerland Car Seat Installation

Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District has a trained and certified Car Seat Safety Technician to ensure that all children are secure and safe in properly installed Child Safety Restraints (car seats). The purpose of this program is to educate parents on the proper use and installation of child safety seats. We provide car seat inspections, installation guidance, product recall checks, and informative literature through our office.

The inspection will include:

An adult secures a baby in a car seat, adjusting the straps. The baby is wearing a pink jacket and looking forward.

· Verifying the appropriate car seat is being used for the age, height, and weight of the child.

· Discuss the best location and type of installation.

· Demonstrate how to properly install the car seat.

· Verify the seat is not recalled and functioning properly.

· Properly adjusting the harness securing the child.

· Discuss the next step and answer any questions
