Testing a Child Safety Seat
Before seating a child, always make sure the
child safety seat is not loose:
1. Hold the child safety seat by the belt path
and try to slide the safety seat from side
to side and front to back.

2. If the seat moves more than one inch
(2.5 cm), it is too loose. Tighten the belt
or reconnect the LATCH retained child
safety seat.
3. If you are unable to reduce slack, try a
different seat location or try another child
safety seat.
Child Safety Seat Warnings
WARNING: Extreme hazard! Do not
seat a child on the front passenger
seat even if you are using a child
safety seat. This seat has an airbag in
front of it. Although this airbag is
disabled when Model X detects a
lightweight passenger, do not rely on
technology to protect your child.
WARNING: Child safety seats are
designed to be secured in vehicle
seats by lap belts or the lap belt
portion of a lap-shoulder belt. A child
could be endangered in a crash if a
child safety seat is not properly
secured in the vehicle.
WARNING: According to collision
statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in a rear seating
position than in the front passenger
seat.
WARNING: Do not use a forward-
facing child safety seat until your child
weighs over 20 lbs (9 kg) and can sit
independently. Up to the age of two, a
child's spine and neck are not
sufficiently developed to avoid injury
in a frontal impact.
WARNING: Do not allow a baby or
infant to be held on a lap. All children
should be restrained in an appropriate
child safety seat at all times.
WARNING: To ensure children are
safely seated, follow all instructions
provided in this document and by the
manufacturer of the child safety seat.
WARNING: Children should ride in a
rear-facing child safety seat using the
seat's integrated 5-point harness for
as long as possible.
WARNING: Do not use seat belt
extenders on a seat belt that is being
used to install a child safety seat or
booster seat.
