Child restraint systems
Seat and restraint systems 4-23
4
Children who weigh more than 40 pounds
(18 kg) or who are more than 40 inches
(100 cm) tall, regardless of age, should
use a suitable child seat or a booster seat
in the rear seat until the vehicle’s lap-and-
shoulder belt fits them properly.
WARNING
All children must be seated in the rear
seat, and properly restrained.
Accident statistics show that children of
all sizes and ages are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat, rather than in
the front seat.
Be sure to select a child restraint system
that is appropriate not only for the child’s
size and age but also for your vehicle.
Some child restraint systems may not fit
your vehicle properly.
Any child who is too large to use a child
restraint system should ride in the rear
seat and wear the lap-and-shoulder belt
properly. The shoulder belt must be posi-
tioned over the shoulder and across the
chest, not across their neck, and with the
lap belt positioned low on the child’s hips,
not across their stomach. If necessary, a
booster seat should be used to help achieve
a proper seat belt fit. Follow the booster
seat manufacturer’s instructions. Only use
a booster seat that is certified as comply-
ing with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards or Motor Vehicle Restraint Sys-
tems and Booster Seats Safety Regula-
tions.
WARNING
WARNING
Never hold an infant or child in your arms
or on your lap when riding in this vehicle,
even when you are wearing your seat belt.
Never place any part of the seat belt you
are wearing around an infant or child.
Failure to follow these simple instructions
creates a risk of serious injury or death to
your child in the event of an accident or
sudden stop.
