Safety of Infants and Small Children
An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until the 
infant reaches the seat maker’s weight or height limit for the seat, and the infant is 
at least one year old.
■
Positioning a rear-facing child seat
Child seats must be placed and secured in a 
rear seating position.
When properly installed, a rear-facing child seat may prevent the driver or a front 
passenger from moving their seat all the way back, or from locking their seat-back 
in the desired position.
It can also interfere with proper operation of the passenger’s advanced front airbag 
system.
If this occurs, we recommend that you install the child seat directly behind the front 
passenger’s seat, move the seat as far forward as needed, and leave it unoccupied. 
Or, you may wish to get a smaller rear-facing child seat.

Protecting Infants

Rear-facing child seats should never be installed in a 
forward facing position.
Always refer to the child seat manufacturer’s 
instructions before installation.

WARNING
Placing a rear-facing child seat in the front 
seat can result in serious injury or death 
during a crash.
Always place a rear-facing child seat in the 
rear seat, not the front.
