When a child reaches the
recommended weight or height limit
for a forward-facing child seat, the
child should sit in the back seat and
wear a lap/shoulder belt.

If a child is too short for the shoulder
part of the belt to properly fit, we
recommend that the child use a
booster seat until the child is tall
enough to use the seat belt without a
booster.

Then pull hard on the loose end of
the belt to remove the any slack (it
may help to put weight on the child
seat while pulling on the belt).
Finally, follow instruction number 5
on page

to verify that the child

seat is secured.

The following pages give
instructions on how to check proper
seat belt fit, what kind of booster
seat to use if one is needed, and
important precautions for a child
who must sit in the front seat.

Allowing a larger child to sit

improperly in the front seat can

result in injury or death if the

passenger’s front airbag inflates.

If a larger child must sit in front,

make sure the child moves the

seat as far back as possible

and wears the seat belt properly.
