Child restraint systems
Infants and small children should always be placed
in an infant or child restraint system in the rear seat
while riding in the vehicle. You should use an infant
or child restraint system that meets Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards or Canada Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards, is compatible with your vehicle
and is appropriate for the child’s age and size. All
child restraint systems are designed to be secured
in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of
a lap/shoulder belt (except those covered under the
section in this manual, entitled “Installation of child
restraint systems by use of lower and tether anchor-
ages”).
Children could be endangered in an accident if their
child restraints are not properly secured in the ve-
hicle. When installing the child restraint system,
carefully follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
According to accident statistics, children are safer
when properly restrained in the rear seating posi-
tions than in the front seating positions.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces require that
infants and small children be restrained in an
approved child restraint system at all times while the
vehicle is moving.
WARNING
Never let a passenger hold a child on his or
her lap or in his or her arms while the vehicle
is moving. The passenger cannot protect the
child from injury in a collision, because the
child will be caught between the passenger
and objects inside the vehicle.
Additionally, holding a child in your lap or
arms in the front seat exposes that child to
another serious danger. Since the SRS airbag
deploys with considerable speed and force,
the child could be injured or even killed.
