Children - Pontiac 1998 Grand Am Owner's Manual

Children
Everyone in
a
vehicle needs protection! That includes
infants and all children smaller than adult size. Neither
the distance traveled nor the age
and size of the traveler
changes the need, for everyone,
to
use safety restraints.
In fact, the law in every state in the United States and in
every Canadian province says children up to some age
must be restrained while in a vehicle.

Children who are up against, or very close to, an
air bag when it inflates can be seriously injured
or killed. Air bags plus lap-shoulder belts offer
the best protection for adults and older children,
but not for young children and infants. Neither
the vehicle's safety belt system nor its air bag
system is designed for them. Young children and
infants need the protection that a child restraint
system can provide. Always secure children
properly in your vehicle.
