Safety Tip:

Children are safer when
properly restrained in
rear seating positions
than in the front seating
positions.
According to National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration information, children in
rear seating positions are statistically safer,
whether you have air bags, advanced air
bags, or no air bags at all.
To help protect your vehicle seat's upholstery from
damage, use a single layered towel underneath and
behind child restraint.
To avoid your child being seriously burned, take the
following precautions:
1. Park in the shade or where sun does not directly hit
the child restraint.
2. Cover the child restraint with a sheet or blanket when
not in use.
3. Check for hot child restraint and buckles before
