Protecting Children

Physical Size

Physically, a child must be large
enough for the lap/shoulder belt to
properly fit over the hips, chest, and
shoulder (see pages

15

and

37

). If

the seat belt does not fit properly,
the child should not sit in the front.

Maturity

To safely ride in front, a child must

be able to follow the rules, including
sitting properly and wearing the seat
belt properly throughout a ride.

If you decide that a child can safely
ride up front, be sure to:

Carefully read the owner's manual
and make sure you understand all
seat belt instructions and all safety
information.

Move the vehicle seat to the rear-
most position.

Have the child sit up straight, back
against the seat, and feet on or
near the floor.

Check that the child's seat belt is
properly positioned and secured.

Supervise the child. Even mature
children sometimes need to be
reminded to fasten the seat belts
or sit properly.

Using Child Seats with Tethers

Your car has three tether anchorage
points under the rear window for

securing a tether-style child seat to

the car.

Since a tether can provide additional
security, we recommend using a

tether whenever one is required or
available.
