BOOSTER SEATS

Precautions on booster seats

WARNING

If a booster seat and seat belt are not
used properly, the risk of a child being
injured in a sudden stop or collision
greatly increases:

. Make sure the shoulder portion of

the belt is away from the child’s face
and neck and the lap portion of the
belt does not cross the stomach.

. Make sure the shoulder belt is not

behind the child or under the child’s
arm.

. A booster seat must only be in-

stalled in a seating position that has
a lap/shoulder belt.

Booster seats of various sizes are offered by
several manufacturers. When selecting any
booster seat, keep the following points in mind:
. Choose only a booster seat with a label

certifying that it complies with Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or Canadian
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.

. Check the booster seat in your vehicle to be

sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s seat
and seat belt system.

. Make sure the child’s head will be properly

supported by the booster seat or vehicle
seat. The seatback must be at or above the
center of the child’s ears. For example, if a
low back booster seat

is chosen, the

vehicle seatback must be at or above the
center of the child’s ears. If the seatback is
lower than the center of the child’s ears, a
high back booster seat

should be used.

. If the booster seat is compatible with your

vehicle, place your child in the booster seat
and check the various adjustments to be
sure the booster seat is compatible with
your child. Always follow all recommended
procedures.
