Need help?
Do you have a question about the HYbrid 3-in-1 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
How do you convert car seat into just a booster?
The Baby Trend Hybrid 3-in-1 car seat converts into a booster seat by transitioning through its three stages:
1. Harness Booster Mode: Used with the 5-point harness for children weighing 30–50 lb and 29”–48” tall.
2. High-Back Booster Mode: The internal harness is removed, and the seat is used with the vehicle’s seat belt for children weighing 40–100 lb and 38”–50” tall.
3. Backless Booster Mode: The backrest is removed, leaving only the base, and it is used with the vehicle’s seat belt.
Ensure proper installation by following the car seat and vehicle owner's manuals.
