Child restraint systems
A child restraint system for a small child or baby must itself be properly
restrained on the seat with the lap portion of the lap/shoulder belt.
The laws of all 50 states of the U.S.A. and Canada now require the use of
child restraint systems.
Points to remember
Studies have shown that installing a child restraint on a rear seat is much
safer than installing one to the front passenger seat.
l Choose a child restraint system that suits your vehicle and is appropri-
ate to the age and size of the child.
l For installation details, follow the instructions provided with the child
restraint system.
General installation instructions are provided in this manual. ( P.
