Protecting Children

To deactivate the locking

mechanism in order to remove a
child seat, unlatch the buckle,
unroute the seat belt, and let the belt
fully retract.

Additional Precautions for Small

Children

Never hold a small child on your
lap.
If you are not wearing a seat

belt in a crash, you could be
thrown forward into the

dashboard and crush the child.

If you are wearing a seat belt, the
child can be torn from your arms
during a crash. For example, if
your car crashes into a parked
vehicle at 30 mph (48 km/h), a
30-lb (14 kg) child will become a
900-lb (410 kg) force, and you will
not be able to hold on.

Never put a seat belt over yourself

and a child. During a crash, the

belt could press deep into the child
and cause very serious injuries.
