A child safety seat includes a seat shell having a child seating area configured to hold an infant or small child and a mounting base for securing the seat shell into a vehicle. The seat shell includes handle mounts located on opposite lateral sides of the seating area configured to attach opposing ends a movable carry handle in a manner enabling pivoting movement thereof. The carry handle includes a pair of lock mechanisms, one disposed at each handle end that enables the handle to be fixed into a selected pivotal position. Each lock mechanism includes a release actuator enabling the lock mechanism to be unlocked so that the carry handle may be repositioned. The release actuators are interconnected in a manner such that releasing movement of one will be transferred to the other, enabling simultaneous release of both lock mechanisms by operation of either release actuator.
