Infants and Child Restraint
Systems
Warning!
Children too big for child restraint
systems should ride in rear seats
using regular seat belts. Position

shoulder, not face or neck. A booster
seat may be necessary to achieve
proper belt positioning.

They could be struck by the airbag
when it inflates in a crash. If this hap-
pens, a child in the restraint could be
seriously or fatally injured.
We recommend that all infants and
children be restrained at all times while
the vehicle is in motion.
Important!
When the child restraint is not in
use, remove it from the car or secure
it with the seat belt to prevent the
child restraint from becoming a
projectile in the event of an accident.
The use of infant or child restraints is
required by law in all 50 states and all
Canadian provinces.
