rearw ard -facing in the vehicle until they are at least
one year old and weigh at least 20 lbs (9 kg). Two typ es
of child restraints can be used rearw ard -facing: infant 2
carriers and Љconvertible Љ child seats. Both typ es of
child restraints are held in the vehicle by the lap/
shou lder belt or the LATCH child restraint anchorage
system . Refer to “Low er Anchors and Tether for CHil-
dren (LATCH)” later in this section.
In a collision , an unrestrain ed child , even a tin y baby,
can becom e a missile insid e the veh icle. The force
req uired to hold even an infan t on you r lap could
becom e so great that you could not hold the child , no
matter how stron g you are. The child and oth ers
could be badly injured . Any child rid ing in you r
veh icle should be in a prop er restrain t for the child ’s
size.
The infant carrier is only used rearw ard -facing in the
vehicle. It is recom mend ed for child ren who weigh up
to abou t 20 lbs (9 kg). ЉConvertible Љ child seats can be
used either rearw ard -facing or forw ard -facing in the
vehicle. Convertible child seats often have a higher
weight limit in the rearw ard -facing direction than
infant carriers do, so they can be used rearw ard -facing
by child ren who weigh more than 20 lbs (9 kg) but are
less than one year old.
Infan ts and Small Child ren
There are different sizes and typ es of restraints for
child ren from new born size to the child almost large
enou gh for an adult safety belt. Alw ays check the child
seat owner’s manu al to ensu re you have the right seat for
you r child . Use the restraint that is correct for you r child .

Automotive readers have rated 2008 Chrysler Town Country Owners Manual 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 3 product reviews. Looked up a few items and was impressed with how fast it worked. Bought vehicle used and manual was missing. Thanks to this sight I can figure out all these buttons and switches.
