W ARNING: Never let a passenger hold a child on his or her lap while the vehicle is moving. The passenger cannot protect the child from injury in a collision, which may result in serious injury or death. W ARNING: Never use pillows, books, or towels to boost a child. They can slide around and increase the likelihood of injury or death in a collisio[...]

Follow all the safety restraint and airbag precautions that apply to adult passengers in your vehicle. If the child is the proper height, age, and weight (as specified by your child safety seat or booster manufacturer), fits the restraint and can be restrained properly , then restrain the child in the child safety seat or with the belt-positioning [...]

Installing child safety seats with combination lap and shoulder belts Check to make sure the child seat is properly secured before each use.

This is necessary to remove the remaining slack that will exist once the additional weight of the child is added to the child restraint[...]

LA TCH compatible child safety seats have two rigid or webbing mounted attachments that connect to the two lower anchors at the LA TCH equipped seating positions in your vehicle. This type of attachment method eliminates the need to use safety belts to attach the child seat, however the safety belt can still be used to attach the child seat. For fo[...]

W ARNING: Depending on where you secure a child restraint, and depending on the child restraint design, you may block access to certain safety belt buckle assemblies and/or LA TCH lower anchors, rendering those features potentially unusable. T o avoid risk of injury , occupants should only use seating positions where they are able to be properly re[...]

Although the lap/shoulder belt will provide some protection, children who have outgrown a typical child seat are still too small for lap/shoulder belts to fit properly , and wearing an improperly fitted vehicle safety belt could increase the risk of serious injury in a crash. T o improve the fit of both the lap and shoulder belt on children who hav[...]

T ypes of booster seats There are generally two types of belt-positioning booster seats: backless and high back. Always use booster seats in conjunction with the vehicle lap/shoulder belt. • Backless booster seats If your backless booster seat has a removable shield, remove the shield. If a vehicle seating position has a low seat back or no head [...]

Children and booster seats vary in size and shape. Choose a booster that keeps the lap belt low and snug across the hips, never up across the stomach, and lets you adjust the shoulder belt to cross the chest and rest snugly near the center of the shoulder . The drawings below compare the ideal fit (center) to a shoulder belt uncomfortably close to [...]

Follow all instructions provided by the manufacturer of the booster seat. W ARNING: Never place, or allow a child to place, the shoulder belt under a child’ s arm or behind the back because it reduces the protection for the upper part of the body and may increase the risk of injury or death in a collision.
