Infants And Child Restraints
Safety experts recommend that children ride
rearward-facing in the vehicle until they are two
years old or until they reach either the height or
weight limit of their rear facing child safety seat.
Two types of child restraints can be used
rearward-facing: infant carriers and convertible
child seats.
The infant carrier is only used rearward-facing
in the vehicle. It is recommended for children
from birth until they reach the weight or height
limit of the infant carrier. Convertible child seats
can be used either rearward-facing or forward-
facing in the vehicle. Convertible child seats
often have a higher weight limit in the rearward-
facing direction than infant carriers do, so they
can be used rearward-facing by children who
have outgrown their infant carrier but are still
less than at least two years old. Children should
remain rearward-facing until they reach the
highest weight or height allowed by their con-
vertible child seat. Both types of child restraints
are held in the vehicle by the lap/shoulder belt
or the ISOFIX child restraint anchor system.
Refer to “ISOFIX — Child Seat Anchorage
System”.
When using certain Child Restraint Systems
with rigid attachments ISOFIX and foot stands
extending to the vehicle floor, remove the ve-
hicle floor mat prior to installation to ensure a
secure fit. Refer to the Child Restraint Owner’s
Manual for additional information.
WARNING!
•
Rearward-facing child seats must never be
used in the front seat of a vehicle with a
front passenger air bag. An air bag deploy-
ment could cause severe injury or death to
infants in this position.
•
Improper installation can lead to failure of
an infant or child restraint. It could come
loose in a collision. The child could be
badly injured or killed. Follow the manufac-
turer’s directions exactly when installing an
infant or child restraint.
•
A rearward-facing child restraint should
only be used in a rear seat.
Here are some tips for getting the most out of
your child restraint:
•
Before buying any restraint system, make
sure that it has a label certifying that it meets
all applicable Safety Standards. Chrysler
Group LLC also recommends that you try a
child restraint in the vehicle seats where you
will use it before you buy it.
•
The restraint must be appropriate for your
child’s weight and height. Check the label on
the restraint for weight and height limits.
•
Carefully follow the instructions that come
with the restraint. If you install the restraint
improperly, it may not work when you need it.
•
Buckle the child into the restraint exactly as
the manufacturer’s instructions tell you.
WARNING!
When your child restraint is not in use,
secure it in the vehicle with the seat belt or
remove it from the vehicle. Do not leave it
loose in the vehicle. In a sudden stop or
collision, it could strike the occupants or
seatbacks and cause serious personal injury.
