First email:
The age restriction has been taken out of the ProRide manual. However the weight and height restrictions must be followed.
Here are the guidelines for use of the ProRide:
A childCANuse the ProRIDE in theRear-FacingpositionONLYif:
• The child’s weight is between5and 35
pounds (2.3 kgand 15.9 kg).
• The harnessCANbe positionedATor
BELOWthe child’s shoulders, when the
child is seated in the ProRIDE.
• The child’s seated height* isLESS
than22.5 inches(57cm).
• When sitting in the ProRIDE the top of
the child’s head isNOTcloser than 1
inch (2.5cm) from the top edge of the
ProRIDE seat back.
*NOTE: A child’s seated height measures the distance from the top
of their head to the bottom of their tailbone, when they are sitting.
Second email (after I asked if it was retroactive):
The engineer says that it is “grandfathered” in to include prior models. Remember, the size and weight restrictions are what most make a seat suitable or not.
