When choosing a child restraint, be sure the child

restraint is designed to be used in a vehicle. If it is, it

will have a label saying that it meets federal motor

vehicle safety standards.

Then follow the instructions for the restraint. You may

ﬁnd these instructions on the restraint itself or in a

booklet, or both. These restraints use the belt system or

the LATCH system in your vehicle, but the child also

has to be secured within the restraint to help reduce the

chance of personal injury. When securing an add-on

child restraint, refer to the instructions that come with the

restraint which may be on the restraint itself or in a

booklet, or both, and to this manual. The child restraint

instructions are important, so if they are not available,

obtain a replacement copy from the manufacturer.

Where to Put the Restraint

Accident statistics show that children are safer if they

are restrained in the rear rather than the front seat. We,

therefore, recommend that child restraints be secured

in a rear outside seat position including an infant

riding in a rear-facing infant seat, a child riding in a

forward-facing child seat and an older child riding in a

booster seat. Never put a rear-facing child restraint

in the front passenger seat.

Here is why:

{CAUTION:

A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be

seriously injured or killed if the right front

passenger’s air bag inﬂates. This is because

the back of the rear-facing child restraint

would be very close to the inﬂating air bag.

Always secure a rear-facing child restraint in a

rear seat outside position.

If you secure a forward-facing child restraint in

the right front seat, always move the front

passenger seat as far back as it will go. It is

better to secure the child restraint in a rear

seat outside position.

Wherever you install it, be sure to secure the child

restraint properly.

Keep in mind that an unsecured child restraint can

move around in a collision or sudden stop and injure

people in the vehicle. Be sure to properly secure

any child restraint in your vehicle – even when no child

is in it.
