Page 186: Child Restraints
Recommendations for Safety Restraints are based on probable child height, age and weight thresholds from NHTSA and other safety organizations or are the minimum requirements of law. Ford recommends checking with a NHTSA Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST) and consult your pediatrician to make sure your child seat is appropriate for your child, and is compatible with and properly installed in the vehicle.
Page 187 Accident statistics suggest that children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in a front seating position. 2011 Edge (edg) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
Page 188 If all children cannot be seated and restrained properly in a rear seating position, properly restrain the largest child in the front seat. 2011 Edge (edg) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)

Page 195 Ford Motor Company recommends the use of a child safety seat having a top tether strap. See Attaching child safety seats with tether straps and Recommendations for attaching safety restraints for children in this chapter for more information.
Page 196 Attach the tether strap afterward, if included with the child seat. Refer to Recommendations for attaching child safety restraints for children in this chapter. 2011 Edge (edg) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
Page 197 Perform the following steps to attach a child safety seat to the tether anchor: 1. Route the child safety seat tether strap over the back of the seat. 2011 Edge (edg) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
Page 198 WARNING: If the safety seat is not anchored properly, the risk of a child being injured in a collision greatly increases. If your child restraint system is equipped with a tether strap, and the child restraint manufacturer recommends its use, Ford also recommends its use. Child booster seats The belt-positioning booster (booster seat) is used to improve the fit of the vehicle safety belt.
Page 199 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 200 • 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 Edge (edg) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
Page 201 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 Edge (edg) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
Page 202 Refer to the child restraint manufacturer’s instructions for additional inspection and maintenance information specific to the child restraint. Ford Motor Company recommends that all safety belt assemblies in use in vehicles involved in a collision be replaced.
