when worn properly on the body and when
the seat is in an upright position.
WARNING

Unfastening:
· Press the release button in the buckle.
· Hold onto the tongue when you release it
from the buckle to keep it from retracting too

Care and Cleaning
· Be careful not to damage the belt webbing

DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
· Inspect the belts and hardware periodically.
Check for cuts, frays, and loose parts. Dam-
aged parts should be replaced. Do not remove
or modify the belt system.
· Keep belts clean and dry. If the belts need
cleaning, use only a mild soap and water so-
lution. Do not use hot water. Do not use abra-
sive cleaners or bleach. These products may
weaken or damage the belts.
· Replace any belt assembly that was used dur-

CHILD RESTRAINTS

All 50 of the United States and the District of
Columbia now require the use of the child/infant
restraint systems for children in vehicles.
A properly installed and secured child re-
straint system can help reduce the chance or se-
verity of personal injury to a child in an accident
or during a sudden maneuver. Children may be
injured in an accident if they are not seated in a
child restraint which is not properly secured.
A child restraint system is designed to be se-
cured in a vehicle seat by a lap belt or the lap belt
portion of a lap-shoulder belt. According to acci-
dent statistics, children are also safer when prop-
erly restrained in rear seating positions than in
front seating positions.
When purchasing a child restraint system:
1. Look for the label certifying that it meets all
applicable U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards (FMVSS) or, in Canada,
requirements of the Children's Car Seats and
Harnesses Regulations (CCSHR).
2. Make sure that it will attach to your vehicle
and restrain your child securely and conve-
niently so that you are able to install it cor-
rectly each time it is used.
3. Be certain that it is appropriate for the child's
height, weight and development. The
instructions and/or the regulation label
attached to the restraint typically provides
this information.
