Warning!

G

Infants and small children should never

share a seat belt with another occupant.

During an accident, they could be crushed

between the occupant and seat belt.

A child’s risk of serious or fatal injuries is

significantly increased if the child restraints

are not properly secured in the vehicle

and/or the child is not properly secured in

the child restraint.

Warning!

G

Children too big for a toddler restraint must

ride in seats using regular seat belts.

Position the shoulder belt across chest and

shoulder, not face or neck. A booster seat

may be necessary to achieve proper belt

positioning for children over 41 lb until they

reach a height where a lap/shoulder belt fits

properly without a booster.

When the child restraint is not in use,

remove it from the vehicle or secure it with

the seat belt to prevent the child restraint

from becoming a projectile in the event of

an accident.

Do not leave children unattended in the

vehicle, even if the children are secured in a

child restraint system. Unsupervised

children in a child restraint system may use

vehicle equipment and may cause an

accident and/or serious personal injury.
