I Child-Restraint Systems
Whatever child-restraint system you
consider, please pick the appropriate
one for the age and size of the child,
obey state law and follow the
instructions that come with the
individual child-restraint system.
A rear-facing child-restraint system
should never be used in the front seat
because it would be too close to the air
bag. The front passenger's seat is also
the least preferred seat for other

child-restraint systems.
