Child booster seats The belt-positioning booster (booster seat) is used to improve the fit of the vehicle safety belt.
Page 195 To improve the fit of both the lap and shoulder belt on children who have outgrown child safety seats, Ford Motor Company recommends use of a belt-positioning booster. Booster seats position a child so that vehicle lap/shoulder safety belts fit better.
Page 196 • High back booster seats If, with a backless booster seat, you cannot find a seating position that adequately supports your child’s head, a high back booster seat would be a better choice. 2011 Fiesta (fie) Owners Guide, 1st Printing USA (fus)
Page 197 It is generally best to use a booster seat with lap/shoulder belts in the back seat. Move a child to a different seating location if the shoulder belt does not stay positioned on the shoulder during use. 2011 Fiesta (fie) Owners Guide, 1st Printing USA (fus)
