Test Before Seating A Child - Tesla Model S Owner Safety Information

TEST BEFORE SEATING A CHILD

Before seating a child, always make sure the child safety seat is not loose:
1. Hold the safety seat by the belt path and try to slide the safety seat
side to side and front to back.
2. If the seat moves more than one inch, it is too loose. Tighten the belt
or reconnect the LATCH retained child seat.
3. If you can't reduce the slack, try a different seating location or try
another child safety seat.
WARNINGS:
DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY can occur if instructions and warnings are
not properly followed.
Never attach two child safety seats to one anchorage point. In a collision,
one anchorage point may not be strong enough to retain both seats,
causing serious or fatal injury to an occupant.
Child safety seat anchorages can only withstand loads imposed by
correctly fitted child safety seats. Do not use them for adult seat belts,
harnesses or for attaching other items. Doing so increases risk of serious
injury or death in the event of an accident.
Regularly inspect and check the fit of all child safety seats. Replace seats
that show signs of wear or that are no longer suitable for the age and
weight of the child.
Always check harnesses and the upper tether strap for damage or wear
and tear. A child could be seriously injured or killed in a sudden stop or
collision if the child safety seat's upper tether strap is damaged or not
functioning properly.
