WARNING!
Rearward-facing infant restraints must never be
secured in the passenger seat of a vehicle with a
passenger Air Bag. In a collision, a passenger Air Bag
may deploy causing severe injury or death to infants
riding in rearward-facing infant restraints.
Restraining Infants And Small Children In
Commercial Cargo Vehicles
There are different sizes and types of restraints for
children from newborn size to the child almost large
enough for an adult safety belt. Use the restraint that is
correct for your child:
• The forward-facing child seat is for children from about
20 to 40 lbs (9 to 18 kg), and more than one year old.
• A convertible child seat, one that is designed to be
used for children who are too heavy for a rearward-
facing infant seat, may be used IN THE FORWARD
FACING POSITION ONLY, IT MUST NEVER BE
INSTALLED FACING TO THE REAR IN A COMMER-
CIAL CARGO VEHICLE. When a convertible seat is
properly installed facing forward, the vehicle seat
should be adjusted to the rear most position.
• Children more than 40 lbs (18 kg) should be secured
in the passenger seat in a child restraint or belt-
positioning booster seat with the seat adjusted to the
rear most position
. Older children who do not use
child restraints or belt-positioning booster seats should
ride properly buckled in the passenger seat with the
seat adjusted to the rearmost position. Never allow
children to slide the shoulder belt behind them or
under their arm.
