CHILD RESTRAINTS FOR INFANTS AND SMALL CHILDREN
Infants and small children should always be placed in an appropriate child restraint while riding
in the vehicle. Failure to use a child restraint can result in serious injury or death.

Children and infants should never be carried on your
lap. It is not possible for even the strongest adult to
resist the forces of a severe collision. The child could
be crushed between the adult and parts of the
vehicle. Also, do not put the same seat belt around
both your child and yourself, or another child.

Always install the child restraint properly, and check
that it is securely held in place by the vehicle’s seat
belt or LATCH system (if so equipped). An improperly
installed child restraint could lead to serious injury
or death in a collision. See the vehicle owner’s manual and your child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for complete details.

Child restraints specially designed for infants and small children are offered by several
manufacturers. When selecting any child restraint, keep the following points in mind:

1. The LATCH system (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) is a universal child restraint
system. This system – which may also be referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX compatible
system – allows the child restraint to be installed into the vehicle without the use of seat
belts. Both the vehicle and child restraint must have LATCH system capabilities.

2. Choose only a restraint with a label certifying that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 213.

3. Always make sure the child restraint is appropriate for the age and size of your infant or
small child.

4. Check the child restraint in your vehicle to be sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s seat
and seat belt system.
