 When installing a child restraint system on the front passenger seat
 Selecting an appropriate child restraint system
 Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle's seat belt.
If the child is too large for a child restraint system, sit the child on a rear

seat and use the vehicle's seat belt. (P. 170)
CAUTION
Using a child restraint system

The use of a child restraint system not suitable for the vehicle may not prop-
erly secure the infant or child. It may result in death or serious injury (in the
event of sudden braking or an accident).
Child restraint precautions

For effective protection in automobile accidents and sudden stops, a child

must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system
depending on the age and size of the child. Holding a child in your arms is
not a substitute for a child restraint system. In an accident, the child can be
crushed against the windshield, or between you and the vehicle's interior.
