Recommendations For Attaching Child Safety Restraints For Children - Mercury 2009 Grand Marquis Owner's Manual

Seating and Safety Restraints
• When possible, always properly restrain children twelve (12) years of
age and under in a rear seating position of your vehicle. Accident
statistics suggest that children are safer when properly restrained in
the rear seating positions than in a front seating position.

all children cannot be seated and restrained properly in a rear seating
position, properly restrain the largest child in the front seat.
