D-1
Understanding Your Vehicle
Safety Tip:
To avoid your child being seriously burned,
take the following precautions:
1. Park in the shade or where sun does not directly
hit the child restraint or booster seat.
2. Cover the child restraint or booster seat with a
sheet or blanket when not in use.
3. Check for hot seat and buckles before placing
child in child restraint or booster seat.
To help protect your vehicle seat’s upholstery from damage, use
a car seat mat or a single layered towel underneath and behind
child restraint.
D-2
Vehicle Seating Position
Safety Tip:
Children are safer
when properly
restrained in a rear
seating position
than in the front seating position.
According to accident statistics,
children in rear seating positions are
statistically safer, whether you have
airbags, advanced airbags, or no
airbags at all.

In very few vehicles, the child restraint or
booster seat cannot be properly installed
because of the type of seat belt system,
airbag system and/or lack of location
to anchor the tether strap. Always read
and follow the vehicle owner’s manual
instructions for child restraint and booster
seat use.
Use the child restraint
or booster seat only on
vehicle seats that face
forward. Do not use on
seats that face the sides
or rear of the vehicle. For
vehicles with an airbag,
but without a back seat,
refer to your vehicle
owner’s manual.
