Child safety
Incorrectly fitted child restraint
may swing, tip or come away
causing death or injury.
Do not use a child restraint if the
tether strap falls into a split in the
vehicle seat back or falls off the edge of
the vehicle seat.
All child restraint systems, except
booster seats, are designed to be
installed with the vehicle seat belt
system and a top tether strap. Booster
seats only require the use of the vehicle
lap-sash seat belts. After installing a
child restraint system, push and pull the
system forward and back and from side
to side to verify that it is secured.
Be sure to read and follow the
instructions provided by the child
restraint manufacturer. If you have
any doubts contact the child restraint
manufacturer or consult and approved
Restraint Fitting Station. Your automobile
club or local vehicle registration authority
can provide location details of fitting
stations.
When a child restraint system is not
being used, either remove it and store
it in a safe place, or make sure it is
properly secured. An unsecured child
restraint system can be thrown around
the vehicle in a collision or sudden stop
and injure someone.
When installing a child-restraint system,
follow the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions. The rear seat belts can
be easily converted to the
automatic
locking mode (page 25), which must
be done to secure the child-restraint
system.
