Restraint of Large Children
As children grow, they may need to use new child
restraint systems, including larger child seats or boost-
er seats, which are appropriate for their increased size.
A child who has outgrown available child restraint sys-
tems should use the belts provided in the vehicle.
When seated in the rear outboard seats, the child
should be restrained by the lap/shoulder belt.
If the shoulder belt portion touches the child’s neck or
face, you can use some after-market devices made by
independent manufacturers which help pull the shoul-
der belt down and away from the child’s face or neck. WARNING - Shoulder Belts
on Small Children
• Never allow a shoulder belt to be in contact
with a child’s neck or face while the vehicle
is in motion.
• If safety belts are not properly worn and
adjusted, the risk of death or serious injury
to such a child is high.
