Child restraint systems
N00407100642
When transporting infants or small children in your vehicle, an
appropriate child restraint system must always be used. This is
required by law in the U.S. and Canada.
Child restraint systems specifically designed for infants and
small children are offered by several manufacturers. Choose
only a child restraint system with a label certifying that it com-
plies with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 (FMVSS
213) or Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Cushions
Safety Regulations (RSSR). Look for the manufacturer’s state-
ment of compliance on the box and child restraint system itself.
The child restraint system should be appropriate for your
child’s weight and height, and should properly fit your vehi-
cle’s seat.
For detail information, refer to the instruction manual accom-
panying the child restraint system.

Size DesignationEXAMPLE: P215/65R15
NOTE

European/Japanese metric tire sizing is based on Euro-
pean/Japanese design standards. Tires designed to these
standards have the tire size molded into the sidewall
beginning with the section width. The letter “P” is absent
from this tire size designation. Example: 215/65R15 96H.


LT (Light Truck) -metric tire sizing is based on U.S.A.
design standards. The size designation for LT-metric tires
is the same as for P-metric tires except for the letters
“LT” that are molded into the sidewall preceding the size
designation. Example: LT235/85R16.


Temporary spare tires are high pressure compact spares
designed for temporary emergency use only. Tires
designed to this standard have the letter “T” molded into
the sidewall preceding the size designation. Example:
T145/80D18 103M.
