Testing a Child Safety Seat
Before seating a child, always make sure the child safety seat is not loose:
1.
Hold the child safety seat by the belt path and try to slide the safety seat from side to side and front to back.
2.
If the seat moves more than one inch (2.5 cm), it is
too loose. Tighten the belt or reconnect the
LATCH
retained child safety seat.
3.
If you are unable to reduce slack, try a different seat
location or try another child safety seat.
Child Safety Seat Warnings
WARNING: Extreme hazard! Do not seat a child on
the front passenger seat even if you are using a
child safety seat. This seat has an airbag in front of
it. Although this airbag is disabled when Model Y

technology to protect your child.
WARNING: Seat belt retained child safety seats are
designed to be secured in the vehicle using lap
seat belts or the lap belt portion of a lap-shoulder
seat belt. Children could be endangered in a crash
if their child safety seat is not properly secured.
WARNING: According to collision statistics,
children are safer when properly restrained in the

passenger seat.
WARNING: Do not use a forward-facing child
safety seat until your child weighs over 20 lbs (9
kg) and can sit independently. Up to the age of
two, a child
