If the answer to any of these questions was “no,” then the child still needs to use a
booster seat in this vehicle. If the child is using the lap/shoulder belt, check seat belt fit
periodically and make sure the seat belt buckle is latched. A child’s squirming or slouching
can move the belt out of position. If the shoulder belt contacts the face or neck, move
the child closer to the center of the vehicle, or use a booster seat to position the seat
belt on the child correctly.
WARNING!
Never allow a child to put the shoulder belt under an arm or behind their back. In a
crash, the shoulder belt will not protect a child properly, which may result in serious
injur y or death. A child must always wear both the lap and shoulder portions of the
seat belt correctly.
