o Since a safety belt or child restraint
system can become very hot if it is left
in a closed vehicle, be sure and check
the seat cover and buckles before plac-
ing a child there.
o When the child restraint system is not
in use, fasten it with a safety belt so that
it will not be thrown forward in the case
of a sudden stop or an accident.
o Children who are too large to be in a
child restraint should sit in the rear seat
and be restrained with the available lap/
shoulder belts. Never allow children to
ride in the front passanger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt
portion of the lap/shoulder belt is posi-
tioned midway over the shoulder and
never across the neck or behind the
back. Moving the child closer to the
center of the vehicle may help provide a
good shoulder belt fit. The lap belt por-
tion of the lap/shoulder belt must al-
ways be positioned as low as possible
on the child's hips, and as snug as
possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the
child, we recommend the use of an
approved booster seat in the rear seat
in order to raise the child's seating
height so that the seat belt will properly
fit the child.
Before purchasing a booster seat, make
sure that it meets applicable Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and that

it is satisfactory for use with this ve-
hicle.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel
on the seat.
o Never use an infant carrier or a child
safety seat that "hooks" over a seatback;
it may not provide adequate security in
an accident.
o Never allow a child to be held in a
person's arms while they are in a mov-
ing vehicle, as this could result in seri-
ous injury to the child in the event of an
accident or a sudden stop. Holding a
child in a moving vehicle does not pro-
vide the child with any means of protec-
tion during an accident, even if the per-
son holding the child is wearing a seat
belt.

Using a Child Restraint System
SSA1100B
to accident statistics provided by the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA), children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seats than in the front
seat. Larger children should use one of the
seat belts provided.
All 50 states have child restraint laws. You
should be aware of the specific requirements
in your state. Child and/or infant safety seats
must be properly placed and installed in the
rear seat. You must use a commercially avail-
able child restraint system that meets the
requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards (FMVSS).
Children could be injured or killed in a crash if
their restraints are not properly secured. For
small children and babies, a child seat or
infant seat must be used. Before buying a
particular child restraint system, make sure it
fits your car seat and seat belts, and fits your
child. Follow all the instructions provided by
the manufacturer when installing the child
restraint system.
WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed
in the rear seat. Never install a child or
infant seat on the front passenger's seat.
Should an accident occur and cause the
passenger side airbag to deploy, it could
severely injure or kill an infant or child
seated in an infant or child seat. Thus
only use a child restraint in the rear seat
of your vehicle.
