CHILD SAFETY LOCKS
If children are to be carried in the rear seat
positions, it is recommended that the rear door
interior handles are disabled. See 24, USING
SEAT BELTS AND CHILD SAFETY LOCKS.
CHILD SEATS
According to crash statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in the rear
seats than in the front seats. Even with
advanced air bags, children can be seriously
injured or killed. Never place a child in any
type of child restraint or booster seat in the
front passenger seat. Children under the age
of 13 should always ride in the rear.
Make sure the child seat fits your child
properly. Always check the seat
manufacturer's instructions and labels for
height and weight limits. For more specific
guidance, consult your pediatrician.
There are three general types of child
restraint systems: Infant seats, toddler seats,
and belt-positioning booster seats.
Infants: until at least 1 year of age and at
least 20 lbs (9 kg).
Toddlers: until about age 4 and about 40 lbs
(18 kg).
Boosters: belt-positioning booster until about
age 8 or at least 4 ft 9 inches (145 cm) and
seat belt fits properly.
Do not allow a baby or infant to be held or
carried on the lap. The force of a crash can
increase effective body weight by as much as
thirty times, making it impossible to hold
onto the child. At all times, children should
be restrained in age and size appropriate
child seats to reduce the risk of injury in a
crash.
Children could be endangered in a crash if
their child restraints are not properly secured
in the vehicle. Always follow the instrutions
that accompany the child seat carefully.
Child restraint systems are designed to be
secured in vehicle seats by use of the lap belts
or the lap belt portion of a lap-shoulder belt.
Children could be endangered in a crash if their
child restraints are not properly secured in the
vehicle.
The seat belts fitted to your vehicle are
designed for adults and larger children. It is
very important for all infants and children
under 13 years of age to be restrained in a
suitable child safety seat appropriate to their
age and size.
This symbol, affixed to the end of the facia on
the passenger side, warns against the use of a
rear-facing child seat in the front passenger
seat, when a front passenger air bag is fitted
and operational.
