behind the driver seat. Always route and secure the unused center

safety belt and becoming entangled in it → Using a child restraint
on the rear seat , → Fig. 74 .
WARNING
Not using a booster seat, using the booster seat improperly,
incorrectly installing a booster seat or using the vehicle safety belt
improperly increases the risk of serious personal injury and death
in a collision or other emergency situation. To help reduce the risk
of serious personal injury and/or death:
Always make sure to position the shoulder portion of the
3 point belt over the middle of the child's shoulder.
Never let the shoulder portion of the safety belt rest against or
across the neck, face, chin, or throat of the child.
Always make sure the lap belt portion of the 3 point belt is
worn snugly across the upper thighs. Never let the lap belt
portion of the safety belt pass over the child's stomach or
abdomen.
Never let a child put the shoulder belt under the arm or behind
the back, because it could cause severe injuries in a crash.
