Protecting Children
Do not leave children alone in your
vehicle.
Leaving children without
adult supervision is illegal in most
states and provinces, and can be
very hazardous. For example,
infants and small children left in a
vehicle on a hot day can die from
heatstroke. And children left alone
with the key in the ignition can
accidentally set the vehicle in
motion, possibly injuring
themselves or others.
General Guidelines for Using
Child Seats
The following pages give general
guidelines for selecting and installing
child seats for infants and small
children.
Selecting a Child Seat
To provide proper protection, a child
seat should meet three
requirements:
1. The child seat should meet safety
standards.
The child seat should
meet Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 213 (FMVSS 213)
or Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard 213 (CMVSS 213). Look
for the manufacturer's statement
of compliance on the box and seat.
2. The child seat should be of the
proper type and size to fit the child.
Infants:
Children up to about one
year old should be restrained in a
rear-facing, reclining child seat. Only
a rear-facing seat provides the
proper support to protect an infant's
head, neck, and back. See page
29
for additional information on
protecting infants.
