If

the airbag inflates, it can hit the back
of the child seat with enough force
to kill or very seriously injure an
infant.

Whenever possible,

larger children should sit in the back
seat, in a booster seat if needed, and
be properly restrained with a seat
belt (see page

for important

information about protecting larger
children).

If the vehicle seat is

too far forward, or the child’s head is
thrown forward during a collision, an
inflating front airbag can strike the
child with enough force to kill or
very seriously injure small child.
