Default Little One HATES the car seat!

Does the handle need to be down on an infant seat?

Yes. You should always put the handle of an infant seat in the down
position while in the car. If there is not enough room to put the
handle down in your vehicle, rotate the handle down further toward the
floor. In a crash, the infant seat will rebound into the back seat.
If the handle is up, it could break and seriously injure the infant or
another passenger. The Britax Handle With Care is the only infant seat
with a reinforced handle that can be upright in the car.


This advice probably varies with country. With the baby car seat we had,
you had to have the handle up, otherwise the seat belt would be in the
baby's face. Admittedly that was nine years ago, but when I checked on
UK websites just now, I could find no information about the correct
position of the carrying handle.
