Baby carseat allowed in box?

I've already asked KLM check-in staff at AMS, but they gave me conflicting information, so I'm hoping someone here may have some anecdotal experience that might provide some more insight.

I'll be flying GRU-AMS on KLM with an infant, we didn't book a separate seat for the infant. I know I can (among other things) check in a baby car seat for free, but I am wondering if this can be checked in the original box (so as to protect it) or if it has to be checked in unprotected, which I am worried may result in damage to the car seat. Since we didn't book a seat for the infant we cannot take the seat on board, and on top the seat is not certified for use on planes anyway.

Does anyone know?
