Dodge Challenger SRT 392 2015 Operating Information Manual page 45

WARNING!
• Never place a rear-facing child restraint in
front of an air bag. A deploying passenger
Advanced Front Air Bag can cause death
or serious injury to a child 12 years or
younger, including a child in a rear-facing
child restraint.
• Only use a rear-facing child restraint in a
vehicle with a rear seat.
Older Children And Child Restraints
Children who are two years old or who have
outgrown their rear-facing convertible child seat
can ride forward-facing in the vehicle. Forward-
facing child seats and convertible child seats
used in the forward-facing direction are for
children who are over two years old or who have
outgrown the rear-facing weight or height limit
of their rear-facing convertible child seat. Chil-
dren should remain in a forward-facing child
seat with a harness for as long as possible, up
to the highest weight or height allowed by the
child seat.
All children whose weight or height is above the
forward-facing limit for the child seat should use
42
a belt-positioning booster seat until the vehicle's
seat belts fit properly. If the child cannot sit with
knees bent over the vehicle's seat cushion while
the child's back is against the seatback, they
should use a belt-positioning booster seat. The
child and belt-positioning booster seat are held
in the vehicle by the seat belt.
WARNING!
• Improper installation can lead to failure of
an infant or child restraint. It could come
loose in a collision. The child could be
badly injured or killed. Follow the child
restraint manufacturer's directions exactly
when installing an infant or child restraint.
• After a child restraint is installed in the
vehicle, do not move the vehicle seat
forward or rearward because it can loosen
the child restraint attachments. Remove
the child restraint before adjusting the ve-
hicle seat position. When the vehicle seat
has been adjusted, reinstall the child re-
straint.
WARNING! (Continued)
• When your child restraint is not in use,
secure it in the vehicle with the seat belt or
LATCH anchorages, or remove it from the
vehicle. Do not leave it loose in the vehicle.
In a sudden stop or accident, it could strike
the occupants or seatbacks and cause
serious personal injury.
Children Too Large For Booster Seats
Children who are large enough to wear the
shoulder belt comfortably, and whose legs are
long enough to bend over the front of the seat
when their back is against the seatback, should
use the seat belt in a rear seat. Use this simple
5-step test to decide whether the child can use
the vehicle's seat belt alone:
1. Can the child sit all the way back against the
back of the vehicle seat?
2. Do the child's knees bend comfortably over
the front of the vehicle seat – while they are
still sitting all the way back?
