ABOUT CHILD SAFETY SEATS
CHOOSE A SUITABLE CHILD SAFETY SEAT
Your Model S seat belts in the front and second row seats are designed
for adults and larger children.You must restrain infants and small children
in the second row seats only and you must use a suitable child safety
seat appropriate for the child’s age, weight, and size. Carefully follow the
instructions provided by the manufacturer of the child safety seat. Never
use child safety seats in the front row passenger seat.
All children age 12 and under should ride in the rear seats. Always use a
child safety seat suitable for a young child’s age and weight:
Infants
Toddlers
Young Children
Age
Birth to 1 year
Over 1 year
4 and older
(unless over 57” tall)
If your Model S is equipped with rear facing child seats, these seats are
child safety seats and are designed only for children within a specific
height and weight range (see page 12).

Many child safety seats currently available allow children to ride rear facing using the child
safety seat’s integrated 5 point harness for a longer period of time. Using these systems for as
long as possible is strongly recommended.
WARNINGS:
CAUTION: Laws that governs how and where children should be carried
when travelling in a vehicle are subject to change. It is the driver’s
responsibility to comply with all current regulations.
According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained
in the rear seating positions than in the front seating positions.
To ensure children are safely seated, follow all instructions provided in
this document and provided by the manufacturer of the child safety seat.
Failure to do so increases the risk of death or serious injury.
Do not allow an infant to be held on a lap. To reduce the risk of injury, a
child must be restrained in an appropriate child safety seat.
