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 certify-

ing that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 213 or Canadian Motor Ve-
hicle 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

1

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

2

should be used.

• If the booster seat is compatible with your ve-

hicle, place your child in the booster seat and
check the various adjustments to be sure the
booster seat is compatible with your child. Al-
ways follow all recommended procedures.

All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is
being operated.

The instructions in this section apply to booster
seat installation in the rear seats or the front
passenger seat.
