Infant Seat Installation Tips

For proper protection, an infant

must ride in a reclined, or

semi-reclined position. To

determine the proper reclining

angle, check with the baby's

doctor, or follow the seat maker's

recommendations.

To achieve the desired reclining

angle, it may help to put a rolled-

up towel under the toe of the child

seat, as shown.

Protecting Small Children

Child Seat Type
A child who can sit up without

support, and who fits within the

child seat maker's weight and

height limits, should be restrained

in a forward-facing, upright child

seat.

Of the different seats available,

we recommend those that have a

five-point harness system as

shown.
We also recommend that a small

child stay in the child seat as long

as possible, until the child reaches

the weight or height limit for the

seat.

Child Seat Placement
In this vehicle, the best place to

install a forward-facing child seat

is in one of the seating positions

in the back seat.

Placing a forward-facing child

seat in the front seat of a vehicle

equipped with a passenger's

airbag can be hazardous. If the

vehicle seat is too far forward, or

the child's head is thrown forward

during a collision, an inflating

passenger's airbag can strike the
