Restraining A Child Who Weighs Over 40 Ibs (18 Kg) - Honda 1997 Prelude Owner's Manual

The preferred place to put a toddler
seat is in the rear seat. Use the car's
lap/shoulder belt to secure the seat
to the car. Be sure to follow the
instructions for securing a child seat
with a lap/shoulder belt on page 22.
If you are using a toddler seat in the
front passenger's seat, move the
passenger's seat as far back as
possible before installing the child
seat. If the passenger's bag inflates,
it could seriously hurt a toddler who
is not in the proper position or
properly restrained.
Restraining a Child Who Weighs
Over 40 Ibs (18 kg)
We recommend that, whenever
possible, a child who has outgrown a
toddler seat ride in the rear seat and
use a lap/shoulder belt.
Child Safety
Put the lap/shoulder belt on your
child and check its fit. The shoulder
belt should fit over the collarbone
and across the chest. The lap belt
should sit low on your child's hips,
not across the stomach.
If the shoulder belt crosses the neck,
you should use a booster seat.
Several styles of booster seats are
available. We recommend a design
that allows the child to use the car's
lap/shoulder belt.
Whichever style you select, follow
the booster seat manufacturer's
instructions.
