properly restrained to minimize the risk
of injury in an accident, sudden stop or
sudden maneuver.

Restraint Location
Never install a child or infant seat in the
front passenger's seat. A child riding in
the front passenger seat can be force-
fully struck by an inflating airbag and

Hot Child Restraint
A child restraint system can become

According to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seats than in the front seat. Even
with air bags, children can be seriously
injured or killed. Children too large for a
child restraint must use the seat belts
provided.
