Protecting Small Children

Child Seat Type

A child who can sit up without

support, and who fits within the child
seat maker's weight and height
limits, should be restrained in a
forward-facing, upright child seat.

Of the different seats available, we
recommend those that have a five-

point harness system as shown.

We also recommend that a small

child stay in the child seat as long as
possible, until the child reaches the
weight or height limit for the seat.

Child Seat Placement
In this car, the best place to install a
forward-facing child seat is in one of
the seating positions in the back seat.

Placing a forward-facing child seat in

the front seat of a vehicle equipped
with a passenger's airbag can be

hazardous. If the vehicle seat is too

far forward, or the child's head is
thrown forward during a collision, an
inflating passenger's airbag can

strike the child with enough force to
cause very serious or fatal injuries. If
a small child must be closely

watched, we recommend that

another adult sit in the back seat

with the child.
