Knowing your vehicle
Restraint of larger children
WARNING - Children on
laps
Never hold a child on your lap or
in your  arms in  a moving  vehi-
cle.
Even a very  strong person can-
not  hold   onto  a   child  in   the
event of even a minor collision.
WARNING - Infants and
young children
As children  grow, they  may need  to
use   new   child-restraint    systems,
including larger child seats  or boost-
er  seats,  which are  appropriate  for
their increased size.
A child  who has  outgrown  available
child-restraint  systems   should  use
the  belts   provided  in   the  vehicle.
When  seated  in  the  rear  outboard
seats, the child should  be restrained
by the lap/shoulder belt.
If  the  shoulder  belt  portion  slightly
touches the  child’s neck  or face, try
placing the child closer  to the center
of the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still
touches their face or neck  they need
to be returned to a child restraint sys-
tem. In addition, after-market devices
are available from independent man-
ufacturers which help  pull the shoul-
der  belt  down  and  away  from  the
child’s face or neck.

•  Infants and young children are
at much greater risk of serious
injury or  death in  an accident
or sudden stop if they are unre-
strained or  restrained improp-
erly. Follow  all  instructions in
this  section  and  the   instruc-
an
approved child  safety system.
The child restraint must be cor-
rectly  installed in  the  vehicle,
and the child must be correctly
placed in the child restraint.

CAUTION - Hot metal
parts
Safety   belts    and   seats    can
become hot in a vehicle that has
been  closed   during   warm/hot
weather;   they   could    burn   a
child.  Check   seat  covers   and
buckles before you place a child
anywhere near them.
All   children    under   12    are
safest in the back seat.
•  Never install  a child  or infant
seat  in   the  front   passenger
position.   The   baby   will   be
injured or  killed by the  airbag
if it deploys.
Never allow a child to stand or
kneel  on  the  seat  of  a  moving
vehicle.
