Keep vehicle keys and remote
transmitters out of reach of
children. Even very young
children learn how to unlock
vehicle doors, turn on the ignition,
and open the hatch, which can
lead to accidental injury or death.

Two types of seats may be used: a
seat designed exclusively for infants,
or a convertible seat used in the rear-
facing, reclining mode.

If placed

facing forward, an infant could be
very seriously injured during a
frontal collision.

Only a rear-facing child seat provides
proper support for a baby’s head,
neck, and back.

An infant must be properly
restrained in a rear-facing, reclining
child seat until the child reaches the
seat maker’s weight or height limit
for the seat, and the child is at least
one year old.

Protecting Inf ants

Do not put a rear-f acing child seat in
a f orward-f acing position.

Placing a rear-facing child seat
in the front seat can result in
serious injury or death if the
passenger’s front airbag inflates.

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