Children who are up against,
or very close to, any airbag when
it inflates can be seriously injured
or killed. Never put a rear-facing

seat, always move the front
passenger seat as far back as it
will go.
Selection of a particular restraint
should take into consideration not
only the child's weight, height, and
age but also whether or not the
restraint will be compatible with the
motor vehicle in which it will
be used.
For most basic types of child
restraints, there are many different
models available. When purchasing
a child restraint, be sure it is
designed to be used in a motor
vehicle.
The restraint manufacturer's
instructions should state the weight
and height limitations for a particular
child restraint.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of neck and
head injury during a crash, infants
need complete support. In a
crash, if an infant is in a
rear-facing child restraint, the
crash forces can be distributed
across the strongest part of an
infant's body, the back and
shoulders. Infants should always
be secured in rear-facing child
restraints.
