Protecting Children

Selecting a Child Seat

To provide proper protection, a child

seat should meet three

requirements:

1.The child seat should meet safety

standards.

The child seat should

meet Federal Motor Vehicle

Safety Standard 213 (FMVSS 213)

or Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety

Standard 213 (CMVSS 213). Look

for the manufacturer's statement

of compliance on the box and seat.

2. The child seat should be of the

proper type and size to fit the child.

Small Children:

A child who can sit

up without support should be

restrained in a forward-facing child

seat. See page

26

for additional

information on protecting small

children.

3. The child seat should fit the

passenger's seat.

Due to variations in the design of

child seats, vehicle seats, and seat

belts, all child seats will not fit all

seating positions in all cars.

However, Honda is confident that

one or more child seat models can fit

and be properly installed in all

recommended seating positions in

your car.

Before purchasing a child seat, we

recommend that parents test the

child seat to make sure it fits

properly in the passenger's seat. If a

previously purchased child seat does

not fit, you will need to buy a

different one that will fit.
