Child Restraints

Be sure to follow the instructions for the restraint. You may find these
instructions on the restraint itself or in a booklet, or both. These restraints
use the belt system in your vehicle, but the child also has to be secured
within the restraint to help reduce the chance of personal injury. The
instructions that come with the infant or child restraint will show you how
to .do that.
The child restraint must be secured properly in the center (except 60/40
bench seat) or right front passenger seat. If you have a 60/40 split bench
seat, you must use the right front passenger seat.
Keep in mind that an unsecured child restraint can move around in a
collision or sudden stop and injure people in the vehicle. Be sure to properly
secure any child restraint in your vehicle
-
even when no child is in it.
Top Strap
If your child restraint
has a top strap, it
should be anchored.
If you need to have an anchor installed, you can ask your vehicle dealer to
put it in for you. If you want to install
an
anchor yourself, your dealer can
tell you how to do it.
