Child Safety Safety of Larger Children
Booster Seats
■
If a lap/shoulder seat belt cannot be used
properly, position the child in a booster seat in
the passenger’s seating position. For the child’s
safety, check that the child meets the booster
seat manufacturer’s recommendations.
Protecting Larger Children - Final Checks
■
If you decide that a child can safely ride in this vehicle, be sure that:
You have read and fully understand the instructions and safety information in
●
this manual.
The passenger seat is as far back as possible.
●
The child is sitting upright and well back in the seat.
●
The seat belt is properly positioned.
●
Monitoring a Child Passenger
■
We strongly recommend that you keep an eye on a child passenger. Even older,
more mature children sometimes need to be reminded to fasten their seat belts and
sit up properly.
Booster Seats
When installing a booster seat, make sure to read
the instructions that came with it, and install the
seat accordingly.
There are high-and low-type booster seats. Choose
a booster seat that allows the child to wear the
seat belt correctly.
Some U.S. states and Canadian provinces/territories
require children to use a booster seat until they
reach a given age or weight (e.g. 6 years or 60
lbs/27 kg). Be sure to check current laws in the
state or province/territory where you intend to
drive.
