WARNING
ALWAYS properly restrain infants and
small children in a Child Restraint
System appropriate for the child's
height and weight. To reduce the risk
of serious injury or death to a child and
other passengers,NEVER hold a child
in your lap or arms when the vehicle
is moving.The violent forces created
during an accident will tear the child
from your arms and throw the child
against the interior of the vehicle.
Small children are best protected from
injury in an accident when properly
restrained in the rear seat by a Child
Restraint System that meets the
requirements of the Safety Standards of
your country. Before buying any Child
Restraint System, make sure that it has
a label certifying that it meets Safety
Standard of your country. The Child
Restraint System must be appropriate
for your child's height and weight. Check
the label on the Child Restraint System
for this information. Refer to "Child
Restraint Systems" in this chapter.
Larger children
Children under age 13 and who are too
large for a booster seat should always
occupy the rear seat and use the
available lap/shoulder belts. A seat belt
should lie across the upper thighs and
be snug across the shoulder and chest
to restrain the child safely. Check belt fit
periodically. A child's squirming could
put the belt out of position.In the event
of an accident, children are afforded the
best safety restrained by a proper Child
Restraint System in the rear seats.
If a larger child over age 13 must be
seated in the front seat, the child must
be securely restrained by the available
lap/shoulder belt and the seat should be
placed in the rearmost position. If the
shoulder belt portion slightly touches
the child's neck or face, try placing the
child closer to the center of the vehicle.If
the shoulder belt still touches their face
or neck, they need to be returned to an
appropriate booster seat in the rear seat.
WARNING
• Always make sure larger children's
seat belts are worn and properly
adjusted.
• NEVER allow the shoulder belt to
contact the child's neck or face.
• Do not allow more than one child to
use a single seat belt.
Seat belt use and injured people
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
Consult a physician for specific
recommendations.
One person per belt
Two people (including children) should
never attempt to use a single seat belt.
This could increase the severity of
injuries in case of an accident.
