Securing the Child Within the Child
Restraint

WARNING:

A child can be seriously injured or killed in a crash
if the child is not properly secured in the child
restraint. Secure the child properly following the
instructions that came with that child restraint.

Where to Put the Restraint

According to accident statistics, children and infants are
safer when properly restrained in a child restraint
system or infant restraint system secured in a rear
seating position.

We recommend that children and child restraints be
secured in a rear seat, including: an infant or a child
riding in a rear-facing child restraint; a child riding in a
forward-facing child seat; an older child riding in a
booster seat; and children, who are large enough, using
safety belts.

If a child restraint is secured in the right front passenger
seat, and the vehicle has a switch in the glove box to
manually turn off the right front passenger airbag, see
Airbag Off Switch on page 2‑83 and Securing a Child
Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position (With
Passenger Sensing System) on page 2‑62
or Securing
a Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position (With
Airbag Off Switch) on page 2‑66
or Securing a Child
Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position (Heavy Duty
Crew Cab Only) on page 2‑70
for more information,
including important safety information.
