Child restraint system

For small children and babies, the

use of a child seat or infant seat is

strongly recommended and is

required by law in almost all states.

This child seat or infant seat should

be of appropriate size for the child

and should be installed in accor-

dance with the manufacturer's

instructions.

Children riding in the car should sit

on the rear seat and must always be

properly restrained to minimize the

risk of injury in an accident, sudden

stop or sudden maneuver. According

to accident statistics, children are

safer when properly restrained in the

rear seats than in the front seat.

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 par-

ticular child restraint system, make

sure it fits your car and seat belts,

and fits your child. Follow all the

instructions provided by the child

seat manufacturer when installing

the child restraint system.

WARNING - Shoulder

belts on small 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.
