The trAnswerition point for switching to the forward-facing position is defined by the manufacturer,but is generally at a body weight of at least 10 kg and 1 year of age.Infants who weigh 10 kg before 1 year of age should continue to ride in a rear-facing seat.Five kilograms is too small to be safe.The relatively large head of this size child should be in the rear-facing position.It is usually safe to put children who weigh more than 15 to 20 kilograms in forward-facing convertible safety seats.
