CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
must always be positioned as low as
possible on the child's hips and as snug
as possible.
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.
Children riding in the car should sit in the rear
seat and must always be properly restrained to
minimize the risk of injury in an accident, sud-
den stop or sudden maneuver. According to
accident statistics provided by the National High-
way 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 pro-
vided.
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 available
child restraint system that meets the require-
ments 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
and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all the
instructions provided by the manufacturer when
installing the child restraint system.
o
If the seat belt will not properly fit the
child, we recommend the use of an ap-
proved 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 Feder-
al Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
(FMVSS) and that it is satisfactory for
use with this vehicle.
Never allow a child to stand up or kneel
on the seat.
Never use an infant carrier or child safety
seat that "hooks" over a seatback; it may
not provide adequate security in an acci-
dent.
Never allow a child to be held in a per-
son's arms while they are in a moving
vehicle, as this could result in serious
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.

Since a safety belt or child restraint sys-
tem can become very hot if it is left in a
closed vehicle, be sure to check the seat
cover and buckles before placing a child
there.
When the child restraint system is not in
use, store it in the trunk or fasten it with
a safety belt so that it will not be thrown
forward in the case of a sudden stop or
an accident.
Children who are too large to be in a
child restraint should still sit in the rear
seat and be restrained with the available
lap/shoulder belts. Never allow children
to ride in the front passenger seat.
Always make sure that the shoulder belt
portion of the lap/shoulder belt is posi-
tioned midway over the shoulder, never
across the neck or behind the back. Mov-
ing the child closer to the center of the
vehicle may help provide a good shoul-
der belt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/
shoulder belt or the center seat lap belt
