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 be-

hind the child or under the child’s arm.

• A booster seat must only be installed

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

• Booster seat anchorages are designed

to withstand only those loads imposed
by correctly fitted booster seats. Under
no circumstances are they to be used
to attach adult seat belts or other
items or equipment to the vehicle. Do-
ing so could damage the booster seat
anchorages. The booster seat will not
be properly installed using the dam-
aged anchorage, and a child could be
seriously injured or killed in a collision.
