17 September 2014 the new Australian Standards for child restraints were introduced. The introduction saw ISOFIX child restraints being allowed as well as introducing the G type child restraint (extended forward facing) and the A4 type baby car seat (extended rear facing child restraint).
Convertible Booster seats are simply referred to as forward facing seats, and cannot be used as a rear facing child restraint.
Even though the law says that a child can be forward facing from six months of age, in reality the 6 months of ages is simply too young to forward face as the child has not developed sufficient strength in their necks and backs to support themselves in a forward facing position.
Child safety experts have recognised this and have been working hard to introduce extended rear facing child restraints. In the Australian Standards these extended rear facing child restraints are referred to as A4 child restraints. An A4 Baby car seat is tested to a large 30 month old and have an exit marker of 39 cm.
Should height markers refer to the torso length of the child when they are sitting down
Convertible Booster height markers (6month-8yrs) descending order by tallest inbuilt harness height
