Child restraint systems

Points to remember

Studies have shown that installing a child restraint on a rear seat is
much safer than installing one to the front passenger seat.

● Choose a child restraint system that suits your vehicle and is

appropriate to the age and size of the child.

● For installation details, follow the instructions provided with the

child restraint system.
General installation instructions are provided in this manual.

Types of child restraints

Child restraint systems are classified into the following 3 types
according to the age and size of the child.

Rear facing — Infant seat/convertible seat

A child restraint system for a small child or baby must itself be prop-
erly restrained on the seat with the lap portion of the lap/shoulder
belt.

The laws of all 50 states of the U.S.A. and Canada now require the
use of child restraint systems.
