Selecting an appropriate child restraint system

Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.

●

If a child is too large for a child restraint system, sit the child on a rear
seat and use the vehicle’s seat belt. (
