CONTINUED

A child who is at least 1 year old, and
who fits within the child seat maker’s
weight and height limits, should be
restrained in a forward-facing,
upright child seat.

Of the different seats available, we
recommend those that have a five-
point harness system as shown.

In any of these situations, we
strongly 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.

We also recommend that a small
child use the child seat as long as
possible, until the child reaches the
weight or height limit for the seat.

Placing a rear-facing child seat
in the front seat can result in
serious injury or death during a
collision.

Always place a rear-facing child
seat in the back seat, not the
front.
