Restraint of larger children
WARNING - Infants and
WARNING - Shoulder belts
onsmall children
• Never allow a shoulder belt to be
in contact with a child’s neck or
face while the vehicle is in
motion.
• If safety belts are not properly
worn and adjusted, there is a risk
of death or serious injury to such
a child.
As children grow, they may need to use
new child-restraint systems, including
larger child seats or booster 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 touch-
es 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 system. In addition, after-
market devices are available from inde-
pendent manufacturers which help pull
the shoulder belt down and away from
the child’s face or neck.

Infants and young children are at
much greater risk ofserious injury
or death in an accident orsudden
stop if they are unrestrained or
restrained improperly. Follow all
instructions in thissection and the
instructions that came with an
approved child safety system. The
child restraint must be correctly
installed in the vehicle, and the
child must be correctly placed in
the child restraint.
All children under 12 are safest in
the back seat.
Never install a rear facing infant
seat in the front passenger pos i-
tion. The baby will be injured or
killed by the air bag if it deploys.
