Driver and Passenger Safety
Using a Booster Seat
If a child needs a booster seat, we
recommend choosing a high or low-
back style that allows the child to be
directly secured with the lap/
shoulder belt.
Whichever style you select, follow
the booster seat maker's instructions.
A child should continue using a
booster seat until the child exceeds
the booster seat manufacturer's
requirements.
Even then, the child may still need to
use a booster seat. Note that some
countries now require children to
use boosters until they reach a
certain age and/or weight. Be sure
to check current laws in the country
or countries where you intend to
drive.
For EU countries, refer to page
37 for the recommended booster
seat.
