CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
B230A03P-EAT Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be restrained to minimise the risk of injury in an accident, sudden stop or suddenmanoeuvre. According to accident sta- tistics, children are safer when prop- erly restrained in the rear seats than inthe front seat. Larger children should use one of the seat belts provided. You are required by law to use safetyrestraints for children. If small children ride in your vehicle you must put them in a child restraint system (safety seat).Children could be injured or killed in a crash if their restraints are not properly secured. For small children and ba-bies, a child seat or infant seat must be used. Before buying a particular child restraint system, make sure it fits yourcar seat and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all the instructions pro- vided by the manufacturer when in-stalling the child restraint system.

!WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed in the rear seat. Never install a child or infant seat on the front passenger's seat. Should an accident occur andcause the passenger side airbag to deploy, it could severely in- jure or kill an infant or child seatedin an infant or child seat. Thus, only use a child restraint in the rear seat of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child re-
straint system can become veryhot if it is left in a closed vehicle, be sure to check the seat cover and buckles before placing achild there.
o When the child restraint system
is not in use, fasten it with asafety belt so that it will not be thrown forward in the case of a sudden stop or an accident. o Children who are too large to be in
a child restraint should sit in the rear seat and be restrained with the available lap/shoulder belts.Never allow children to ride in the front passanger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoul- der belt portion of the outboardlap/shoulder belt is positioned midway over the shoulder, neveracross the neck. Moving the child closer to the centre of the vehicle may help provide a good shoul-der belt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt or the cen- tre seat lap belt must always bepositioned as low as possible on the child's hips and as snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, we recommend the useof an approved booster seat inthe rear seat in order to raise the child's seating height so that the seat belt will properly fit the child.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat. o Never use an infant carrier or child
safety seat that "hooks" over aseatback; it may not provide ad-equate security in an accident.
o Never allow a child to be held in a
person's arms whilst they are in amoving vehicle, as this could re- sult in serious injury to the child in the event of an accident or asudden stop. Holding a child in a moving vehicle does not provide the child with any means of pro-tection during an accident, even if the person holding the child is wearing a seat belt.
o If the child restraint seat is not
anchored properly, the risk of achild being seriously injured or killed in a collision greatly in- creases.
