Children
To
make the belt shorter, pull its free end as shown until
the
belt
is
snug.
Buckle, position and release it the same way as the lap
part of a lap-shoulder belt. If the belt isn’t long enough,
see “Safety Belt Extender” at the end of this section.
Make sure the release button on the buckle is positioned
so
you would be able to unbuckle the safety belt quickly
if you ever had to.
Everyone in
a
vehicle needs protection! That includes
infants and all children smaller than adult size. Neither
the distance traveled nor the age and size
of
the traveler
changes the need, for everyone, to use safety restraints.
In fact, the law in
every
state in the United States and in
every Canadian province says children
up
to
some age
must be restrained while in
a
vehicle.
Smaller Children and Babies
Children who
are
up against, or very close to, an
air
bag when it inflates
can
be
seriously
injured
or
killed.
This
is
true even
if
your vehicle
has
reduced-force frontal
air
bags. Air bags plus
lap-shoulder belts offer the best protection for
adults and older children, but not for young
children and infants. Neither the vehicle’s safety
belt system nor
its
air
bag system
is
designed for
them. Young children and
infants
need the
protection that a child restraint system
can
provide.
Always secure children properly
in
your vehicle.
