Protecting Children

Installing a Child Seat

After selecting a proper child seat, and a good position to install the seat,
there are three main steps in
installing the seat:

1. Properly secure the child seat to
the car. All child seats are
designed to be secured to the car
with the lap part of a lap/shoulder belt. Some child seats can be secured to the vehicle's lower
anchorages instead. A child whose seat is not properly secured to the
car can be endangered in a crash.
See pages 29, 32 and 38 for
instructions on how to properly secure child seats in this car. 2. Make sure the child seat is firmly

secured. After installing a child

seat, push and pull the seat
forward and from side to side to
verify that it is secure.
To provide security during normal driving maneuvers as well as during
a collision, we recommend that
parents secure a child seat as firmly as possible.
However, a child seat does not need
to be "rock solid." In some vehicles or seating positions, it may be
difficult to install a child seat so that
it does not move at all. Some side-to- side or back-and-forth movement can
be expected and should not reduce
the child seat's effectiveness. If the child seat is not secure, try
installing it in a different seating
position, or use a different style of
child seat that can be firmly secured
in the desired seating position.
3. Secure the child in the child seat. Make sure the child is properlystrapped in the child seat
according to the child seat maker's
instructions. A child who is not
properly secured in a child seat
can be thrown out of the seat in a
crash and be seriously injured.
Storing a Child Seat When you are not using a child seat, either remove it and store it in a safe
place, or make sure it is properly secured. An unsecured child seat can
be thrown around the car during a
crash or sudden stop and injure
someone.
