Child Safety
Restraining a Child Who
Weighs Over 18 kg (40 Ibs)
We recommend that, whenever
possible, a child who has outgrown
a toddler seat ride in one of the
outside positions of the rear seat
and use a lap/shoulder belt.
Driver and Passenger Safety
Put the seat belt on your child and
check its fit. The shoulder belt
should fit over the collarbone and
across the chest. The lap belt
should sit low on your child's hips,
not across the stomach.
If the shoulder belt crosses the
neck, have your child move toward
the center of the rear seat until the
belt fits properly. If the belt still
crosses the child's neck, you should
use a booster seat.
Several styles of booster seats are
available. We recommend a design
that allows the child to use the car's
lap/shoulder belt.
Whichever style you select, following
the booster seat manufacturer's
instructions.
Using a Seat Belt Locking
Clip
Always use a seat belt locking clip
when you secure a child seat to
your car with a lap/shoulder belt.
This helps prevent the seat from
shifting position or overturning.
A locking clip is usually included
with the child seat. If you need a
clip, contact the seat's manufac-
turer or a store that sells child
restraints.
