I'm looking at my convertible seat to check for the expiration date but it's not so clear. I bought it in March or April 03'. Other carseats I've seen will say don't use after "insert date" but this what mine has: it's etched in the bottom, it has a 03 (which could be the manufactured year) then it's follow by a dial with twelve numbers (assuming is the month) with the arrow pointing at 3 and the next thing (the one that puzzles me) is a two digit number which look like a 10 but the 1 is upside down (or it could be a 01 that they put it totally backward). So assuming it's 03 - dial pointing at 3 - 10 I can interpreted it two ways one: 03' March 10 being completely the manufactured date or two: 03' March 10' being the manufactured year at the left (03') and the expiration one at the right (10'). Or assuming it's 03 - dial pointing at 3 - 01 the only way to interpreted is 03' March 01 being only the manufactured date. If it's the first (03'-10') that means that they're giving a life span of 7 yrs. If the latter is the case (03' March 01), I've read 6 yrs is the usual life span of a carseat, so would my expiration date be 09' March 01'?
