Where to Put the Restraint

Accident statistics show that chifdren are safer if they
are restrained fn the rear rather frían the front seat.
We, therefore I recommend that chi id restraints be

secured in a rear outslda seat position including an
infant nding in a rear-facing infant seat, a child riding in
a Jorward-facing child seat and an older child riding
in a booster seat.

CAUTION:

A child in a reaMacing child restraint can be
seriously Injured or killed if the right frorrt
passenger's atrbag inflates. This Is because

Always secure a rear-facing child restraint in a
rear seat outride position.

restraint in the right front seat, but before you

child restraint in a rear seat outside position^

Wherever you install it, be sure to secure Ihe child

restraint properly.
