2006 Ford Escape Owners Manual

Seating and Safety Restraints
If the  shoulder  belt  portion  of a combination  lap  and shoulder  belt  can
be positioned   so it does  not  cross or  rest  in front  of the  child’s face or
neck,  the child  should  wear the  lap and  shoulder  belt.  Moving the  child
closer  to the  center  of the  vehicle  may help  provide a  good shoulder  belt
fit.
Do not  leave children,  unreliable  adults,  or  pets  unattended   in
your vehicle.
Child booster seats
Children  outgrow  a typical  convertible  or toddler  seat  when  they  weigh
40
lb. (18  kg) and  are  around  4 years  of age. Although  the  lap/shoulder
belt  will provide some  protection,   these  children  are still  too small  for
lap/shoulder  belts  to  fit properly,  which could  increase  the  risk of serious
injury in  a crash.
To improve  the  fit of both  the  lap and  shoulder  belt on  children  who
have outgrown   child safety  seats,  Ford Motor  Company  recommends  use
of a belt-positioning   booster.
Booster  seats  position  a child so  that  safety belts  fit  better.  They lift  the
child up  so that  the  lap belt  rests  low across  the  hips and  the  knees
bend  comfortably.  Booster seats  may  also make  the  shoulder  belt fit
better  and  more  comfortably. Try  to keep  the  belt near  the  middle of  the
shoulder.
Whe n childr  en  shou ld use   boost er  se ats
Children  need  to use  booster  seats  from the  time  they outgrow  the
toddler  seat  until they  are  big enough  for the  vehicle  seat and
lap/shoulder  belt  to fit  properly.  Generally this  is when  they  weigh about
80
lb. (36  kg) (about   8 to 12 years  old).
Booster  seats  should  be used  until you  can answer  YES to  ALL of these
questions:
Can the  child  sit all the  way back
against  the  vehicle seat  back  with
knees  bent  comfortably  at the
edge  of the seat  without
slouching?
Does the  lap belt  rest  low across  the  hips?
