Guidelines for Seating Children
Your Model Y seat belts are designed for adults and larger children. You must restrain infants and
small children in the second row seats only, and you must use a suitable child safety seat
appropriate for the child's age, weight, and size.
Warning: Never seat a child on a rear facing child seat with an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it.
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the child can occur. See
page 44.

touchscreen.
